Binici: Animal adaptation for a specific environment

 
Bactarian Camel, Camelus bactrianus-
42.065065,-71.584511
The two humps on this camel's back has allowed the Bactarian Camel to adapt to its dry desert environment by storing water and fat for times when food is scarce.

Scarlet Macaw, Ara Macao-
42.065065,-71.584511
The beak shape of the Ara Macao is an adaptation to better suit a rainforest environment where it must utilise its beak to break open nuts for food.
