No, our camels are not falling apart.
They're just trading in their winter coats for their summer glow-up. 💅

Every year as temperatures rise, Bactrian camels begin losing their thick winter fur in large clumps. The shedding process can make them look patchy, ragged, or even a little scruffy for several weeks.
