Jon,I thought you might get a charge out of seeing some domesticated Alpacas.
About a year ago my sister and brother-in-law decided to invest in these animals and Christmas Day was my first-hand look at the critters.
You may notice the lack of snow for us here in Minnesota. Last year at this time we had over 20 inches; this year it's dry as a bone, which suits me fine.
Alpacas are actually domesticated vicuña, while llamas are domesticated guanacos.
ReplyDeleteDogs and coyotes sometimes kill alpacas around here, so they keep llamas in with them to keep the predators away.
