>Camel's milk does not curdle.
Only the milk of ruminating (cud chewing) animals curdles. These include the
bovine, ovine and deer families.
---------------------------------------------------------
The ruminants include other members of the artiodactyl order (even toed
hoof) including giraffes and pronghorn. Cattle, buffalo, bison, true
antelope, sheep and goats are all in the same family. Camelids (camels and
llama types are considered to be primitive ruminants without the full
complexity of the higher ruminants. The non-ruminant artiodactyls are pigs,
peccaries and hippos. Horses, tapirs and rhinos make up the odd toed hoof
and do not chew cuds.
