The way camels chew on prickly cacti
Camels can devour a spiny cactus full of spines thanks to the specially constructed part of the mouth.
Sharp spikes don't hurt you, you still cup.
The two humped camels named Baby and Nessie did not mind the thorns. Eating thorns is quite painful but they can handle. Camels adapt to harsh conditions in the desert and are accustomed to eating spiny plants.
Inside the camel mouth, small conical protrusions called papilae help them chew. The trick is to avoid being stabbed by the thorns. Camels alternately chewed and swallowed thorns along the throat, although it was difficult to eat, they were still equal.
