Alpacas belong to the species of camels. Their life expectancy is ca. 20 years. Alpacas are intelligent, quiet, good-natured and tough animals. Alpacas also find on meagre pasture sufficient food. Alpacas feed about the same like sheeps but they utilize the food better. They don´t need special fences and stables and they don´t get sheep sicknesses. Ten animals need an area of one hectare. Because of their callus soles they don´t destroy the meadows. Every year bring a Alpaca female a young one into the world - the so called “Cria”. The pregnancy takes 11 to 11 ½ months.
