Yes, when driving in Central Australia, it is necessary to watch for wandering camels! Camels were introduced to inland Australia in the mid-late 1800s to provide transport with "camel trains" in remote areas. This continued until the advent of roads and trucks, when many were released - and we now have probably the largest free-roaming camel population in the world !
