Why didn't they eat the camel?

To be truthful, I have not seen this movie, but I have at home; I will probably watch it on Monday.
My question has been answered.

They had an endless supply of dates. However, it's a good question.

That's just what I've been looking for a good date movie.

There was also the monkey to think about.

Actually, in the book, after the Arabs had killed Harris and the doctor, Frank and Moran had gone out to examine the remains. Moran cut open the camel and took the fluid from inside its stomach. Apparently, he poured the stuff into the tank.
Later, Crow and Bellamy came back to scavenge the blood from the camel.

If the camel were not killed i would have said - may be to get some water later on!
We're talking about unchecked aggression here, dude.

Frank shot the poor camel so full of bullets, they were probably afraid of chipping a tooth.

I would have shot the camel too. It would have been cruel to leave it tied up and dying of heat and thirst.

Whatever you do, do not go see the remake of The Flight of The Pheonix! It sucked. Do not waste your time. You can go to see it like I did and compare it to the original, but don't expect it to be as powerful or intense as the original. Dennis Quaid's character doesn't even come close to Stewart.
Just some advice.

After all they had been surviving on a diet of only dates, heck, they could have gone vegan on that diet!
