In the Sahara Desert of Africa, camels are the main means of transportation for people. People use it to carry water, food and goods. Especially on long journeys, a camel can carry more weight than ten strong men. Therefore, almost every household there keeps one or even a dozen camels.

Taming a camel is the most difficult thing, because once a camel gets mad, even a dozen people can't hold it back. Therefore, taming a camel is the most common skill among camel farmers in the Sahara.

Soon after a camel is born, the camel raiser will dig a bright wooden stake wrapped with red thread deep into the ground to tie the camel. Of course, the camel was not willing to give in to a seemingly insignificant little wooden stake. It pulled on the rope desperately, jumping left and right, trying to pull the small wooden stake out of the ground completely. But the camel didn't know at all that the seemingly short and small wooden stake was not only dug very deep, but also tied with heavy stones by the camel trainer. Even if more than a dozen adult camels worked together, there was no way to pull it out. come out.

After a few days, the exhausted camel succumbed, fearing the stake. At this time, the owner removed the red thread wrapped around the wooden stake, sat on the wooden stake, and leisurely pulled the rope that tied the camel with his hands and shook it constantly. The camel, unwilling to be manipulated, became manic again with red eyes. It believes that it must be stronger than this man who is much shorter than itself. So, it pulled and struggled desperately again, and even the four camel hooves were torn and bled, but the man who pulled the reins tightly remained calm and composed. Tutuo gradually surrendered. The next day, the person holding the camel's reins was replaced by a child who was not proportional to the size of the camel. The camel's wildness started to burn again, and it started a new round of breaking free. Of course, in the end it was exhausted and defeated.

The camel was finally tamed. From that day on, as long as the owner holds a small stick tied to the camel and thrusts it into the ground, the camel will circle around the stick and never dare to compete with the stick again. As the camel grows up day by day, it has become completely accustomed to the life of being led by a small stick.

This tragedy often happens in the Sahara Desert: when an unexpected sandstorm suddenly comes, some people in the camel team often quickly insert a wooden stick on the ground to prevent their camels from getting lost. Then tie one or even several camels to this small stick. The tragedy happened like this. After the owner of the camel team was swept away by the huge sandstorm, the huge camels were still lying firmly around the stick. Because the owner's life and death were unknown, these camels lost the person who pulled out the sticks for them, so they stayed there for one day, two days... In the end, they all starved to death.

Rather than saying that they starve to death from lack of food, it is better to say that they starve to death from their own experience and habits.
