A camel’s hump does not hold water at all – it actually stores fat. The camel uses it as nourishment when food is scarce. If a camel uses the fat inside the hump, the hump will become limp and droop down (as can be seen on the camel on the far left in my photo). The hump is not used for water storage, but camels can go for long periods of time without water
