Camels live in deserts, where it is hot and dry. Camels have adaptations that help them live in deserts. They have a thick coat of hair that protects them from the sun.They have wide, soft feet, so they can walk a long time in the hot sand. Several adaptations help a camel save water.Their large feet spreads their weight on the sand when they are walking.amels have adaptations that help them live in deserts.

Answers. 1  Camels have wide feet to support their weight on the sand. This is an evolutionary trait. The physics behind it goes that that larger the area (beneath the feet), the lower the pressure upon the sand. So, if you have an object exerting 10N of force through a cylinder of 1 m^2, you will have 10 Pa of pressure applied. If the cylinder had 1/2 of the area, it would be 20N. Now, there is an amount of pressure that the sand can support before shear collapsing (sinking). The camels evolved to have wider feet to reduce the pressure exerted on the sand.
