What do you call a baby camel? Find out here! I can't recall exactly how I got persuaded to purchase a Golden Labrador puppy but persuaded I duly was, and 'Bob the dog' arrives with us next weekend. Three young, mischievous children and a new puppy; what could possibly go wrong eh?
Anyway, on the way home from the pet shop, my son suddenly asked, "Dad, you know a baby dog is called a puppy, but what's a baby camel called?" Crikey son, couldn't you have asked me what a baby cat or sheep or something obvious is called I thought. Still, it could've been worse, he could've asked about baby clams I suppose. But what's the answer? What is a baby camel called? Well, the answer is (cue drum roll)........ a CALF. Just like a baby cow. And a baby elephant, giraffe, hippo, moose, rhino, whale, gnu and a host of other lovely animals. And just in case you are asked by your children (or are simply curious yourself) what the following <http://scienceray.com/biology/do-you-know-what-a-baby-camel-is-called/> baby animals are called I can confirm: Alligator = hatchling Bat = pup Falcon = chick Gerbil = pup Grasshopper = nymph Hare = leveret Koala = joey Panda = cub Rabbit = kitten (or kit) Shark = pup Turkey = poult Wombat = joe And there we go.
