Camel thorn trees (Vachellia erioloba) have several adaptations that enable them to thrive in arid environments. Their deep root systems allow them to access groundwater, while their thick bark and small, waxy leaves reduce water loss through transpiration. Additionally, the trees have developed long thorns that deter herbivores from feeding on them, ensuring their survival in harsh ecosystems. These adaptations collectively enhance their resilience to extreme drought and grazing pressures.
