Moose sinew would be easier to get.  Anyways, a moose is just a horned snow camel.... ::)
Any critter tastes good with enough butter on it.

For all you jokers out there, the reason I'm asking is that apparently, camels have short leg muscles and long tendons. The muscles stretch the tendon, and then the muscles release, swinging the leg forward by the elastic action of the tendon. When I hear this, I had a picture of the alleged 900 + yard Turkish flight bows flash through my mind.

The trouble with that synopsis of movement in a Camel is that it fits any other running animal that gains a large amount of free energy return from elastic structures.
  The camel may have longer cannon bones than all but the Giraffes but there are several other more elastic animals out there.

Sorry for cluttering up the thread,just caught me funny, ;) ;D ;D ;D it should work great but I would think it would be hard to get and as Pat said other animals are good also and a lot more available ,at least here in the states.  :)
