How do llamas live?
- ๐๏ธ 8
Llamas are domesticated South American camelids that live in the Andes Mountains, primarily in Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, and Chile. They are herbivores, feeding on grasses, shrubs, and other vegetation. Llamas are social animals and live in herds, which provide protection and companionship. They communicate with each other using vocalizations, body language, and facial expressions. Llamas are well-adapted to high altitudes, able to withstand cold temperatures and low oxygen levels. They are often used as pack animals due to their strength and stamina, and they can carry heavy loads over long distances. Reproduction occurs year-round, and after a gestation period of about 350 days, females give birth to a single cria (baby llama).
