2024 creature stat blocks list all the creature saving throw bonuses in a table with the ability scores now. Since 2014 stat blocks list only the saving throw proficiencies and have that in a separate line below the ability scores, the saving throw bonuses from the new table when a creature has proficiency don't seem to be transferring over to the 2024 stat blocks.
For example, Camel has proficiency in constitution saves (+5) as shown on the Free Rules stat block page below, but clicking on the individual stat block does not show it. Same with Cat and dexterity saves, Goat and strength saves, etc.
The Camel stat block in the printed 2024 PHB also shows +5 Con saves, but I think many of the stat blocks for DDB character sheets have not yet been updated for 2024. A related bug: If you try to add beast stat blocks to character sheet Extras, the only option to add is Wild Shape (2014). When you use that option to select a 2024 beast, the stats look updated, but almost all the Saves are INT+3 and WIS+7.
Camel is now important to low level Moon druids under the new rules, as you only get 4 or 6 forms on your list each day. Camel offers decent 50ft speed and +5 Con saves help to keep your moonbeam or conjure animals or whatever going. At level 6 and 18 WIS, that increases to +9 with Increased Toughness and possibly +10 at level 8. By level 9, hopefully there will be something as good or better at CR3 when the new 2024 MM is released.

Stopped playing AD&D in '82, came back to 5e during COVID. Good times.
