  Cama (animal) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Cama is a hybrid between a camel and a llama.
Though born even smaller than a Llama calf, the Cama had the short ears and long tail of a camel, no hump and llama-like cloven hooves rather than the dromedary-like pads.
The Cama apparently inherited the poor temperament of both parents as well as demonstrating the relatedness of the New World and Old World camelids.

Cama, a cross between a camel and a llama
This can result in the eventual development of an adult animal composed of cells from both donors, for example a chicken with a quail's brain has been produced by grafting portions of a quail embryo into a chicken embryo.
Alternately, individual cells themselves can be merged together into hybrid cells, such as the hybridomas used to produce monoclonal antibodies[?] which are made by fusing antibody-producing immune system cells with cancer cells in a cell culture[?].

Animals were always highly regarded in Ancient Egypt and the cat in particular seems to have been revered from early times.
The Egyptians did not worship the animal itself but rather viewed each species as a representative of a particular god or goddess, believing that their deities could appear on earth in the form of their associated sacred animal.
One of the most prominent animal cults was that of the cat, which was associated with the goddess Bastet at Bubastis in tile Nile Delta.

Animal researchers in the United Arab Emirates say they have successfully managed to breed one.

Sub-basin 03-04-11, which is located outside of the State's CAMA boundary, lists 152 miles of streams and rivers with a water quality rating of only "partially supporting." The same sub-basin lists agriculture as the contributor of water quality impairment for 84 miles of those 152 miles rated as partially supporting.
This could potentially exclude from the State's program approximately 85,000 animal units in the State's existing coastal zone that are held in facilities large enough to be subject to the 6217(g) management measures for animal facilities.
CAMA permits are required within the existing coastal zone for activities affecting the AECs, and the activity must also be consistent with the coastal counties' local land use plans.

The cama is now over two years old and has longer legs than a llama but no camel's hump.
The idea was that a cama might become a form of desert mule with the carrying abilities of the camel but minus its reluctance to do human bidding.
The British scientist, Dr Julian "Lulu" Skidmore, who helped develop the cama for the Dubai camel reproduction centre said the cross-breeding is not as outlandish as, say, mating an elephant and a giraffe, as the camel and llama were part of the same species millions of years ago.

The male animal was born last Wednesday, said Dr. Lulu Skidmore, a specialist in camel reproduction.
She said the cama should have the prized fleece of the llama, native to the South American Andes, but because of its larger size it should give more wool.
