1.20 Camels are Dromedaries

The announced "Camels" in minecraft 1.20 are in fact dromedaries, as camels have two humps, and the one showed in the minecraft live only had one. Due to this I think minecraft camels should be eliminated from the game.

    There are different kinds of camels, and dromedaries (i.e. - "one-humped camels") are one of them.

    I'm 90 percent sure this is a joke, but I would like to let everyone know that dromedaries are in fact a type of camel.

    They should be renamed to Dromedaries or made to have two humps

    It is true that this new animal is in the genus Camelus, A camel, but I really think that we should name it after what species it is, and not what genus it belongs to.

    But there are a difference between those three species of camels; the Camelus bactrianus: Camel/Bactrian camel, Camelus ferus: Wild bactrian camel and Camelus dromedarius: dromedary. And that difference is clear enough in English to name those after their proper names.

    I feel that calling it by its genus name camel is like naming the mob panda as bear, or the mob pig as swine, or name us humans as hominidae; great apes.

    Or almost like calling the mob panda as Sloth bear, or the mob pig as boar, or name us humans as chimpanzee. They are both in each example are closely related, but still different.
