| Llamas are quiet, peaceful animals and make humming sounds to communicate. |
| Llamas only eat between 4-6 lbs. of hay per day and require no special diet. They graze and browse and have a very efficient digestive system. |

| The llama's beauty and dignity soothes the soul. |
| Llamas are easy to train to lead, load and carry a pack. |
| The ultimate packing companion, llamas have low impact on the environment. |
