review parents of “Dromedary Bactrian Camel” (VBO:0000012) #61

From Cari (email thread following the 221031 release): “Dromedary Bactrian Camel” (VBO:0000012) is at the top level of the ontology. It should be placed under “Camelus”?

From Sabrina: I remember that “Dromedary Bactrian Camel” had been requested to be added in NCBITaxon, but had not been added yet (Frank, can you confirm that I remember correctly). Therefore, we created a VBO term so we could add the terms under “Dromedary Bactrian Camel” (VBO:0000012), with the goal to update it to the NCBITaxon ID when it becomes available. That being said, it was added without any relation to existing NCBITaxon terms and is therefore at the top level of the VBO ontology. I agree with Cari that this term could be placed under “Camelus” (or under another term within the NCBITaxon classification, I haven't looked into this carefully yet, but Camelus being high level, it would be correct).
