Which came first, the camel or the camel bird?

 ANSWER: The camel bird?

The Sino-Korean word for "camel," is 낙타 (駱駝), which literally means "camel (駱) camel (駝)," and the Sino-Korean word for "ostrich" is 타조 (駝鳥), which literally means "camel (駝) bird (鳥)." 

From what I have read, the ancestors of camels appeared about 40 millions years ago, but there are fossils that suggest that the ancestors of ostriches appeared about 50 million years ago, which would mean the "camel bird," or ostrich, came before the camel.
