Native Range
Andean highlands of South America

Llamas have a calm, curious presence that makes them easy to watch for a few extra minutes. Their long necks and alert ears are constantly moving as they check out people, nearby animals, and anything new in their surroundings. A llama may stand quietly chewing for a while, then suddenly stretch its neck toward something interesting or turn both ears in different directions. Look closely at the feet too. Their padded soles help them travel over rocky ground in the Andes, where llamas have been domesticated for thousands of years. The thick coat can also vary in texture and color, from soft and fine to coarser fibers, depending on the animal. In a zoo or farm-style exhibit, their social side often becomes noticeable as they stay near familiar companions and communicate with body posture, ear position, and soft sounds. And yes, llamas can spit, but it is usually part of a social warning rather than something they randomly do to visitors.
