What kind of animal is the alpaca?

Alpacas are domesticated camelid animals native to South America, particularly Peru, known for their gentle disposition and suitability for fiber production. They are smaller and more docile than their close relatives, llamas. Alpacas come in various colors, have long necks, slender bodies, and they are primarily raised for their luxurious fleece, which is sheared annually without harm to the animal.
In the textile industry, "alpaca" primarily refers to the hair of Peruvian alpacas.
