Alpacas are a camelid with a history from the Ancient Andean mythological age. They’re short, not very friendly members of the camelid family. Historically, alpacas were identified with Pachmana, which alluded to the Earth’s mother. The natives of the Andes Mountains considered alpacas to be a blessing bestowed at the Ausangate Mountains in Peru.
