Once upon a time, in a vast desert, a mother camel and her baby were taking a rest under the shade of a tree. The baby camel, curious as ever, looked up at its mother and asked, “Why do camels have humps?”
The wise mother camel pondered for a moment and then explained, “Well, my dear, we camels live in the desert where water is scarce. Our humps are like reservoirs, storing water to help us survive long periods without drinking.”
The baby camel nodded, intrigued, and then asked another question, “Why are our legs so long and our feet rounded?”
The mother camel smiled patiently and replied, “Our long legs and rounded feet are perfectly suited for traversing the sandy dunes of the desert. They help us walk long distances without sinking into the soft sand.”
The baby camel considered this for a moment before posing another query, “And what about our long eyelashes? Sometimes they get in the way.”
With a gentle tone, the mother camel answered, “Ah, those long, thick eyelashes are like shields for our eyes. In the desert, strong winds often carry sand, but our eyelashes protect us from getting it in our eyes.”
Satisfied with the explanations, the baby camel paused for a moment, then suddenly asked a final question, “If all these features help us in the desert, then why do we sometimes end up in zoos?”
And so, the baby camel learned an important lesson about the importance of context and adaptability in utilizing one's skills and abilities. And as they continued their journey through the desert, they carried this wisdom with them, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
