Llama adoption can be an enriching experience, and is a big decision. Whatever pet you adopt will demand certain lifestyle changes, and a financial commitment. Estimating the monthly costs of owning a pet is just as important as making sure you have the time and motivation to feed the Llama when necessary, and provide a safe environment to live.

Llama adoption is a wonderful way to provide a Llama a second chance and caring environment. Most pets arrive at shelters because the owner had to move, could no longer afford the pet, had a death in the family, or simply gave up the responsibly of being a care taker for a Llama. Before bringing home a Llama, make sure you have considered the full impact of your decision. Below is a brief overview of the type of needs a Llama might require and what you will need to consider for the life time care of a Llama.Frist most, understand that no matter what, even if you buy a Llama for sale, or adopt, as a new pet owner it is your responsibility to care for the Llama it’s entire lifespan. Part of that responsibility is taking time to understand the basic needs of a Llama. At the top of that list should be getting know the diet of a Llama. Find out how often and what a Llama needs to eat. Next, what shelter do you need to provide? Get to know what habitat a Llama is accustom to, what temperature will the Llama need to maintain, and what range of temperatures are acceptable for a Llama to survive.

This blog is for Kendra, who asked for more information about llamas and alpacas and for the rest of you who might want some of your own. You can adopt your llamas and alpacas. Here’s what you should know if you decide to adopt one of these farm animals. These cheeky chaps joined us at The Llama Sanctuary recently. They were part of a large herd in Cornwall whose owner sadly passed away. Matt coordinated and led the rehoming this large herd - 135 animals approximately - the exact number seemed to change daily due to new born baby llamas popping out all over the place! This became a full time job for Matt for a while, so thanks to everyone else here for going above and beyond and covering all the other daily tasks in his absence. There's no denying llamas can be pretty feisty, but that's also why we love them. If they don't want to walk with a heavy load, they'll just lie down, hissing and spitting in protest! And did you know the gestational period is super long at 350 days and when the baby llama is born, it's called a crias? And do make sure you watch out for llamas on the move, as they can run at 35mph! All these fascinating llama facts and more are found in these cool adoption tins.Another way to save on a llama is to adopt one. This involves finding an animal rescue organization near you that has llamas up for adoption. Typically, all you’ll have to pay is the adoption fee. Llamas originate from South America, specifically the Andean region, which includes countries like Peru, Bolivia, and Chile. Characteristics While llamas and alpacas are closely related, they have some key differences. Llamas are generally larger and have a more elongated face, while alpacas have a smaller, more rounded face. Llamas produce coarser fiber, whereas alpacas are known for their finer, softer fiber. Please be mindful when adopting a female, especially if you think the adoptee will want to book a trek, that are females also have other duties such as growing babies and bringing up babies! Therefore some females are often not available for trekking due to being on Maternity leave. It is generally possible for adoptees to be able to meet a female if on maternity leave when they book onto an experience or trek, but we have to put welfare of mum and baby as priority so the health & wellbeing of that llama and it’s cria will determine this factor on the day of the booking. And the other 20 percent? Some are survivors of neglect. Those llamas and alpacas are restored to health before they’re offered for adoption to new home farms. Others are sometimes surrendered due to behavior issues. Those are kept on foster farms and trained until ready for adoption.

This was a colossal group effort - the largest rehoming exercise we have been involved in - and the sheer logistics of moving so many animals in a very tight time span was mind boggling. We had a matter of weeks to move them before they were culled.

Saving Animals

Unfortunately, many people who buy these big animals don’t realize they need tending to. You can’t just buy a llama and set it free on your property and expect the animal to thrive. If you’re put off by having to spend several hundred to many thousands of dollars for a llama, you should know that it may be possible to get a llama for free. While it might not be easy to find a free llama, it would be worth any effort you put forth if you do end up finding a free one.
