Happy LlamaThe llama is a domesticated South American camelid, widely used as a meat and pack animal by Andean cultures since the pre Columbian era. Llamas are social animals and live with others as a herd. Their wool is soft and contains only a small amount of lanolin. Llamas can learn simple tasks after a few repetitions. They are not known to exist in the wild state. Llamas are normally sheared every two years, each yielding about 33. 5 kg (6. 67. 7 pounds)
