AMAZING ASIAN ANIMALS: ANSWER PAGE
Mystery Animal #1 Answer: Bactrian Camel
This poem has a couple of paradoxes twisted into the clues. How can mountains
be soft? How can you sit in a valley? And where there are mountains and valleys,
aren't there always rivers? Not where these mountains wander! For they are
the hairy humps on the back of a Bactrian (or two-humped) camel from the Gobi
Desert of northern China and southern Mongolia.
