Episode 38: Camels At The Alamo
For a brief time in the 1850s, camels roamed and worked the Alamo grounds. It's a remarkable yet lesser recognized piece of history during the time the Alamo served as a critical supply hub for the United States Army as the country expanded west.
Today we reveal why camels were once brought to the Alamo, what was learned from the Army's camel experiment, and how you can see camels make a return to the Alamo later this month, just in time for World Camel Day. Featuring Doug Baum from Texas Camel Corps and the Alamo's former curator Dr. Bruce Winders.
