The alpaca is a smaller animal than the llama, although the two resemble one another in several ways. These animals stand 32-39 inches from foot to withers, and they measure an average of 5.5 feet in length. They have small heads, large eyes, flame-shaped ears that stand up, and long necks. The two breeds have different types of fur. The huacaya breed, which comprises about 90 percent of the world’s alpacas, has thick, fluffy fleece adapted for life at cool, high altitudes. The suri breed has silkier fur that grows into long dreadlock-type curls. Experts believe their silkier, less dense wool is the product of life at a lower, more temperate mountain environment. Right after shearing, alpacas look more like humpless camels than llamas.

We have observed Alpaca 14 times world wild from 2021-10-22 till this date with the last observation being in 2022-07-12 in Poland.

Our data suggest that Alpaca are highly active in June, April and July world wild but differences observed on country level, while the lowest activity observed on November and October.

We noticed also the top 3 countries to observe Alpaca in are: Philippines, Slovak Republic and Switzerland respectively.
