He can transport goods for the Indians ; the meat of younger animals makes an excellent addition to the diet; the hair is used to make clothing and its hide provides material to make sandals. The llama is a member of the camel family, although he doesnt have a hump. Both the llama and one of his smaller cousins called the alpaca were probably bred from the wild guanaco. They are now domesticated and get along well with man. The llama grows to be about four feet tall and is about four or five feet long. His hair is very thick and long and can be a number of different colors: brown, buff, gray, white or black. Goes to Work When a male llama reaches the age of 3Vi he goes to work as a pack animal. The female, who bears one baby at a time, is usually just used for breeding and for her long fur.

As many as a thousand llamas are often employed on a single hauling job into the mountains. Its an impressive sight. A Uama can at times be an extremely stubborn creature. If he suddenly decides his pack is too heavy, or he has worked long enough for the day, he wiU simply lie down, with his front legs under him, and refuse to move. It takes a lot of coaxing to get him back into action. The Uama has another unfriendly habit: If he becomes angry or is under attack, he wiU spit a mouthful of saliva into his enemys face. evil-smelU- tpes'se POZ HAM ZeAL, K AN DOGS M'OUOMTA, SEE i&ll Also Inexpensive Uama is a very The MeHTXAtZE Aleks ECZCH4 I 7V PAZAMOD Astezco Fred Basset Bv Alex Graham Tumbleweeds By Tom K.

He isnt a fussy eater and can be happy on a diet of low shrubs, Uchens and other plants that grow on the high mountains. Hes extremely hardy and doesnt too often become ill. Like his African cousin, the camel, the llama can go for many weeks without drinking water. He can obtain as much moisture as he needs from the green plants that he eats. Cousin alpaca, Uke the Uama, is a native South American. He thrives at locations that are between 12,000 and 16,000 feet above sea level. His wool is much finer than that of the Uama. He is sheared once each year and will give up about seven pounds of wool each time. Bolivia and Ieru are the leading producers of alpaca wool.
