HELPT FOR A PROJECT!!!(on camels)?

I need to know where the camels heart is. One of the article says that is on the underside of the root of the tail. Wouldnt that be hard for the blood that is oxygen filled to travel to. And if anyone by chance knows where i can find internal anatomy diagrom on the website, it would be greatly appreciated!

The camel's heart would obviously be in the chest cavity.

The camel is a mammal, therefore the heart lies within the thoracic cavity, protected by the ribs. It wouldnt be very efficient to have a heart away from the central region of the body or far from the lungs.
