Your Camels Are Time Travelers
Those camels you rely on? Their physiology is so bizarre that if we discovered them today, we'd think they were aliens. They can drink 200 liters in three minutes (try drinking a bathtub of water without stopping). Their blood cells are oval instead of round, preventing them from bursting when they rehydrate rapidly. Their humps aren't water storage—they're fat reserves that, through chemical magic, produce metabolic water more efficiently than any human invention. Your companions are walking miracles of evolutionary engineering that took 45 million years to perfect. !nb
