In this episode we uncover the strange but true story of the U.S. Camel Corps, when camels were brought to Texas to help soldiers travel across hot, dry frontier land. From Camp Verde to the Civil War. Discover why camels seemed like the perfect solution, and why this bold experiment eventually faded into history.
