(ANSA) – TURIN, 02 AUG – A baby alpaca was born in recent days at the Zoom biopark on the outskirts of Turin. It is a female of about 6 kilograms at birth, immediately on her feet, who in less than an hour was looking for milk from her mother, Alpaca, who gave birth to her after a gestation of about 11 months. It is possible to see them during the opening hours, but the biopark has also released a video about the puppy and the other alpacas living in the facility, including Alpaca and Merino, whose names were taken from Nintendo’s Animal Crossing game, such as chosen by the visitors for their similarity to those of the game.
As is well known, they are bred for their fine wool and also in the biopark they are shorn once a year, in spring, but “avoiding the head and legs – as an employee of the biopark explains – since in the structure the wool is not reused and because these animals do not like to be touched on the head and paws.
In those areas, therefore, their hair is left “. (ANSA).
