A camel is an even-toed ungulate within the genus Camelus, bearing distinctive fatty deposits known as "humps" on its back. You can't see Camel in every country. And it may not be useful in every country. But for desert areas camels are very useful. They can store fat/water in their humps. Which can provide them their water. So they can travel trough deserts for many days. People of those areas can use them for traveling through deserts, or use them for carrying things and also can eat their meat - zxm
Desert version of Horse and cow. - zxm
10 Goat
The domestic goat is a subspecies of goat domesticated from the wild goat of southwest Asia and Eastern Europe.

Bees are useful in so many ways, like providing honey as a sweetener instead of sugar, and helping the plants to grow by pollinating them.

Pigeons and doves constitute the bird family Columbidae, which includes about 310 species. Pigeons are stout-bodied birds with short necks, and short slender bills. They primarily feed on seeds, fruits, and plants. Besides carrying messages (which saved many lives in wartime), they are meat birds. I don't eat my beloved pet pigeons, though. - Crwth
Can be used for sending messages - zxm
People in Africa eat them
"Don't insult pigeons? " Is that a serious demand? Will you be writing a manifesto?
The pigeon was the only animal on this list to receive a truly derogatory comment. When you denigrate pigeons, you insult us pigeon fanciers, and we will defend our birds. - Crwth
