A Bactrian is considered the true beast of burden for long or especially important journeys. It is the mark of a wealthy and wise man whose herd of camels includes Bactrians. They are often given as gifts to worthy individuals by a generous sheikh. They are also a little more easily controlled, except in breeding season.
