This was the other color choice of the alpaca/llama. What’s the difference between an alpaca and a llama?

Beautiful shots. Very nice.
I do not know the difference. I learned it from Carol’s comment.
No problem Courtney! 🙂
I love this one too! It looks so soft! <3
What is the difference between Alpaca and Llama?
• Llama is a larger and heavier compared to alpacas.
• Ears are characteristically banana shaped in llamas, whereas those are small and erected in alpacas.
• Distribution range of llamas is larger compared to alpacas.
• Llamas have been originated in the Central North America, whereas alpacas descended from the South American vicuña.
• Alpacas are reared for their valuable fibre or wool, while llamas are useful for human in many ways including as a working animal and a source of good meat and wool.
• Llamas live longer than alpacas do.
• Both prefer to live in herds, but llamas love being petted by humans while alpacas do not so.
Thank you for sharing this information, I really appreciate that 🙂
