Ranges are an iffy thing with Domestics. Both Animals are completely Domesticated now, with no true Wild Populations. Only Ferals. So you can consider Domesticated Ranges to overlap based on these maps.

There are living a few wild Bactrian camels in China and Mongolia. Not much unfortunately but they are still here.
That's a different Species. Called the Wild Bactrian Camel, which is not the direct ancestor of the Bactrian Camel.
It feels like for each DLC different person is doing these bonuses.
According to German Wikipedia there is no consens about that and the Wild Bactrian Camel mostly is classified as a different subspecies.
Not only Bonuses, almost every Requirement.
German Localization probably got out of date. In the past they weren't considered a different Species, until Genetical Studies showed otherwise.
Wild Bactrian camels (Camelus ferus) appear similar to domesticated Bactrian camels (Camelus bactrianus) but the outstanding difference is genetic, with the two species having descended from two distinct ancestors.[18]
I mean last time Red River Hog got interspecies enrichment with nile lechwe. Both animals dont share distribution and river hog easly could have bonus with something like nyala. Why out of all antelopes nile lechwe got it?
Looks like that person went for african ungulate with aquatic tag.
Very unique approach towards interspecies bonuses.

Yep. Both the wild and the ancestor to the domestic lineages diverged nearly a million years ago, well before the wild ancestors of domestic bactrians were domesticated, and the wild ancestor subsequently went extinct. Truly wild bactrian camels truly are unique
Yep I agree with you, just saying other Habitat Requirement balancing changes every Pack too, not just Bonuses. I wish it was more Consistent overall. Lechwe-RRH and Capybara-Galapagos Tortoise are both good examples why Crested Porcupine should have bonus with Meerkat.
Some more info from the English Wikipedia:
In particular, a population of wild Bactrian camel has been discovered to live within a part of the Gashun Gobi region of the Gobi Desert. This population is distinct from domesticated herds both in genetic makeup[14] and in behavior.
Another difference is the ability of these wild camels to drink saltwater slush, although whether the camel can extract useful water from it is not yet certain. Domesticated camels are unable to drink such salty water.[15]
and there is no evidence to suggest that the original range of C. ferus included those parts of Central Asia and Iran where some of the earliest Bactrian remains have been found.[13]
The wool of the wild Bactrian camel is always sandy coloured and shorter and sparser than that of domestic Bactrian camels.[20][22]
The wild Bactrian camel can also survive on water saltier than seawater, something which probably no other mammal in the world can tolerate – including the domesticated Bactrian camel.[23]
There are several differences in size and shape between the two species. The wild Bactrian camel is slightly smaller than the domestic Bactrian camel and has been described as "lithe, and slender-legged, with very narrow feet and a body that looks laterally compressed."[19] The humps of the wild Bactrian camel are smaller, lower, and more conical in shape than those of the domestic Bactrian camel. These humps may often be about half the size of those of a domesticated Bactrian camel.[20] The wild Bactrian camel has a different shape of foot and a flatter skull (the Mongolian name for a wild Bactrian camel, havtagai, means "flat-head").[21]

That's an entire different level of interspecies enrichment.
Finally. As far as I know, it should also have Taiga, I thinkWould love that too. Also Bones as Enrichment
