Lamas

Llamas are domesticated mammals native to South America, closely related to alpacas, vicuñas, and guanacos. They are known for their gentle temperament and are often used as pack animals, capable of carrying loads across rugged terrains. Llamas have thick, soft wool that can be sheared and used for textiles. They communicate through body language and humming sounds, and they are social animals that thrive in groups. Llamas play a significant role in Andean cultures, providing not just transportation but also companionship and wool for clothing.
