Guanaco and Chulengo

On the way home today we stopped at a farm/farm shop which had animals outside. Guanaco are members of the camel family and are similar to llamas and alpacas. They're from South America. A baby guanaco is a chulengo. This little chulengo had not long been born. It was very difficult to take a photo because there was a barrier stopping you getting close.
Sweet shot -I have never heard of these before.

Lovely shot .. I've never heard of a guanaco or a chulengo and wondered if you'd been on the bottle - but I checked. (Did you have cake at the farm shop?)

What a lovely picture and, for us, such unusual animals.

Gorgeous.... although I am not a fan of the camel family after having been spat at from a great height by a camel at Chester Zoo many, many, moons ago ..
