Microsoft Rewards Bing Homepage Quiz Question: This pair of dual-humped camels is brought to you by Twosday (Tuesday, 2/22/22)! Which type of camel are they?
A Bactrian
B Dromedary
C There’s one of each
A classic mnemonic reminds us that Bactrian camels’ backs look like the letter ‘B’ on its side, while dromedaries resemble a rotated ‘D.’
These dual-humped Bactrians are our photo stars for today’s rare calendrical celebration of Twosday, so-named for the way the date is written numerically—2/22/22. Twosday occurs just once every 400 years—so if you weren’t planning to party today, you’d better think twice!
The correct answer is Bactrian.
