The contact area of our foot base is less, hence our body weight comes on our foot, due to which pressure increases so much that our foot start getting inside the sand. That is why we face difficulty in walking in desert. Feet of the camel are spongy and are broad. Due to more contact area, pressure exerted is less; hence foot of the camel does not get inside the sand. Therefore camel walks easily in sand.
