Horses are more sure-footed

Horses are more sure-footed than camels. Although some people may

dispute this, there is no way that a smooth camel foot can have as

much traction as a horse hoof, especially on muddy or icy surfaces.

However, a camel does have one trick in precarious terrain -- it can

drop to it's knees and crawl over the steep spots. And the soft camel

foot is more environmentally friendly -- it will leave hardly a track,

where the sharp horse hoof will cut up the trail (by the way, camel

droppings are also more innocuous and less offensive to "non-animal"

people on the trail).
