History of Alpacas

The Alpaca has a rich and storied past. Starting at a position of worship by the Incan civilization to near extinction at the hands of the Conquistadors and then landing in an enviable place in today's livestock business, the alpaca has existed alongside man for over 5,000 years. The articles in this section bring this history to light.
