Birgit Dörges & Jürgen Heucke (1995 ): “Ecology, Social Organization & Behavior of the Feral Dromedary Camelus dromedarius (L.1758) in Central Australia“. Unpublished translation of two German dissertations, 256 pp. & 2 Appendices 198 pp.

Prior to this study, the social behaviour of the dromedary was completely unknown. In Australia dromedaries have turned feral and only there do they live in large populations today. The study at hand on ecology, social organization & behaviour of the feral dromedary describes the detailed results of a long-term field study on individually known camels.
