🐃Bactrian camel

Camelus bactrianus Linnaeus, 1758

Çift hörgüçlü deve (Camelus bactrianus) Orta Asya'nın çöllerine özgü iri bir çift toynaklıdır. Aynı zamanda dünyada kalan iki-üç deve türünden biridir. Yabani çift hörgüçlü deve de ayrı bir tür sayılmaktadır. Çift hörgüçlü deve daha uzun tüyleri ve iki hörgüçü ile hecin devesinden ayırt edilir. Dünyada 1,4 milyon evcil çift hörgüçlü deve yaşamaktadır. Ancak doğada sadece 950 yabani çift hörgüçlü deve kalmıştır. Bunların hepsi Çin ve Moğolistan'da yaşamaktadır.
