Alpacas are cute animals. They are social, which means they like to have lots
of other alpacas, humans, and other animals as friends. They are between 120
- 225 centimeters long, and weigh 55 to 65 kilos. Alpacas have soft wool, which
humans can make warm clothes out of. Alpacas are found all over the world and
with training can become great pets. They like to hum, but will shriek when danger
is present. Sometimes, if an alpaca is in danger or wants to protect itself, it will spit
at the offending person or animal. Spitting can be used to show their dominance.

There are no wild alpacas in the world, only domesticated. “Domesticated”
means that humans give them homes. Animals like dogs and cats are domesticated,
too. Alpacas were domesticated about 6000 years ago from wild vicuñas. Vicuñas
are a wild animal. Vicuñas are like ancestors to alpacas. Alpacas will have babies
once a year. They grow babies in their stomachs for 242 to 345 days. Alpaca babies
are called “cria.”
