| | Llama and Alpaca Farming (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11) |
 | | The llama, the largest of the types, is used as a beast of burden, as a fiber source, and as a meat source in South America. |
 | | Llamas are usually shorn annually and have a double-hair coat consisting of a fine wool fiber intermingled with stiff guard hairs. |
 | | Llamas are transported in trailers specifically designed for llamas, horse trailers, airport buses, school buses, full size buses with an area for llamas, pick-up trucks with cages, vans, mini-vans, and back seats of cars. |
