Cut to 2020, Australia has the world's largest herd of wild camels and their population is estimated to be about 3,00,000, spread across 37 per cent of the Australian mainland. Fed up with its camels, Australia has declared them to be a "pest" and treats them as an alien invasive species that must be urgently stopped from spreading. Camels were first introduced into Australia in the mid-1880s to transport supplies across the desert but were released into the wild after trains and trucks replaced them. With no natural predators Australia has two species of feral camels – dromedaries and Bactrian. A majority of them are dromedaries. Mostly camels were imported to Australia from Persia, India and Afghanistan in the early days of the European settlement.
