And some would add that they spit out their “hearts” to cool down. The lifting cushions can be used on any type of surface but do look out for broken glass or sharp stones which could puncture the cushions. We advise putting a small tarpaulin or mat underneath the lifting cushion in these circumstances. Can I lift someone supine (lying down) on the lifting cushion?

Some might confuse the organ with a stomach that the camel spat out to cool down. That is not the case. One study reported that out of 26 cases, 25 dulla injuries happened between November and March, which is when camels get into heat. Such injuries result in tears of mucosa and rupture of blood vessels of dulla. Did you know: During WW2, German troops had to eat camel poo to cure stomach problems (dysentery)? There was a catch tho: they had to eat it fresh from the source. Read more about that and dung’s other uses HERE. Camel Dulla Anatomy We have an ELK, an Eagle and a Camel lifting cushion. The ELK will lift 450 KG or 980lbs, the Eagle will lift 190 KG or 420lbs, and the Camel will lift 350 KG or 700lbs. For each cushion, one size fits all and no additional accessories are required. In some circumstances a slide sheet, transfer board or transfer belt may be required to assist a transfer. The optimal temperature to reach the maximum number of lifts is between 95F (35C) and 41F (5C). Can I leave the battery on charge all the time?

One study comparing racing performances of camels with and without a dulla calculated that in a 5-mile run (8 km), male camels without a dulla improved their racing times by 20 seconds. No other animal has such an inflatable sac, not even the camel’s close relatives, llamas and alpacas.

Their long pinkish elongated structure protruding from the mouth and covered in froth should be taken as a warning red sign that the camel is very dangerous and that you should be careful.

This lift with the Mangar Elk is performed in conjunction with a scoop or transfer board. Our Camel and Eagle lifting cushions can lift someone from a lying or sitting position. How do I clean my lifting cushion?

Single-Handed Care

The Camel can be used anywhere, indoors or outside, and will lift a fallen person with dignity while protecting both the carer and the person being lifted from injury.

There are strict laws governing VAT (Value Added Tax) exemption to registered disabled people in the UK. Loud gurgling and grunting sounds, mouth frothing, poll gland secretion, and frequent urination usually accompany this behavior. If a female is present, the excited male will protrude his diverticulum more often. [ 4]

Camel’s dulla serves a double function, to assert superiority over other males and win over the female camels. It is a form of sexual behavior the male expresses during a rutting season. Camel owners trim their pet’s sharp teeth – to decrease the chance of self-inflicting injuries to the dulla, but also to the dulaas of other camels. Camel dulla (dulaa or gulaa) is an inflatable pink sac hanging from a side of the camel’s mouth, usually seen in male dromedary camels. Often, camel owners will remove the dullas of their camels on purpose, as it increases the maximum oxygen uptake at speed, which overall improves the camel’s performance during camel racing.
