Special animal species introduction - Alpaca
Alpacas are native animals in South America, but they have a small living area and a unique climate. However, the temperature difference between day and night is 0 degrees Fahrenheit to 72 degrees Fahrenheit (-18 degrees Centigrade to 22 degrees Centigrade). Alpaca is a quiet, stockbreeding animal. Alpaca can only be cut once a year. It is spun into the finest soft yarns and made into exquisite textiles that are light and warm. Because the alpacas grow in this unique environment, these ruminants have a good ability to digest food and adapt to harsh environments, which makes them easier to keep than any other livestock. About 6,000 years ago, the selected llama evolved into a modern alpaca over a long period of time. The alpacas are similar to the wild llamas in shape, hair fibers, and teeth. It is estimated that there are 3 million alpacaes in the world, of which more than 90% are still distributed in South America. Australia and the United States have begun large-scale breeding, but the total amount of alpacas in two countries has not exceeded 5,000. Alpacas typically have a lifespan of 15 to 20 years, a back height of 32 to 39 inches, a birth weight of 10 to 17 pounds, and a llama of up to 100 to 190 pounds. The ram camel is mature at the age of 2 and a half years and matures at the age of 3 years. The hen can be bred for the first time from 16 to 20 months. Alpaca is an ovulation-inducing animal and can be mated at any time. The average gestation period is 335 days. Every time a child is born, it usually stands in the daytime and the twins rarely appear and rarely survive. In order to prevent the disease, every year must be vaccinated, insecticides, daily manicures and occasional dental care. In order to maintain the health and economic benefits of the alpacas, fine alpaca hair can be cut once a year. In some areas, it is also necessary to supplement some minerals.
