Jim A, How would you like to have to sweep goat and Llama poop out of this exhibit each day, before the advent of high pressure water hoses and nozzles?

I'll pass. I'm sure others remember trying to clean llama and goat exhibits that had a new layer of gravel or chat -- get the bad stuff and keep the good, a professional challenge. The only good thing is that llamas tend to defecate in one area; you don't have to peruse the whole exhibit.
These look like they might be vicuna. I've only seen them a few times in zoos in the US.
Jim,
"Professional challenge?" I suggest exercise in futility. I thought Vicuna also, but Llamas was printed on the top.
Why are Vicuna not exhibited much in American Zoos?
Wade
Peru does not allow export of vicuna to protect the vicuna fibre industry
