Etymology
The word 'alpaca' originated from the Aymara language spoken in the Andes region of South America. Alpacas have been domesticated for thousands of years by Andean cultures for their wool and meat. They are highly valued for their luxurious fleece, which is softer and warmer than sheep's wool.
