An interesting fact about alpacas: Alpacas thrive in a location with extremely hot or cold climates
Alpacas are astonishingly resilient animals adapting successfully to the extremes of scorching and cold climates. However, in humid or hot temperatures, the alpaca owners must take added precautions to ensure that the alpacas are not suffering from heat stress. These include shearing fleeces earlier in the year, fans, ventilation in the barn, and offering cooler fresh water for drinking.
