Description

Alpacas graze on the level heights of the Andes of Southern Peru, Western Bolivia, Ecuador, and Northern Chile at an altitude of 3,500 to 5,000 metres (11,000 to 16,000 feet) above sea level. This one posed for us at Antisana Ecological Reserve in the Ecuadorean Andes. Alpacas were domesticated thousands of years ago and are bred specifically for their fiber. Thus, they are considered more ‘livestock’ than ‘wild animal’. They are related, but different and smaller than, llamas. Like llamas and camels, they do spit!Antisana Ecological Reserve is a protected area of moorlands and Andean forests, vocanic activity and glacial processes, located about 50 km southeast of Quito Equador.
