| This vicuna inhabits the Torres del Paine National Park in Chile. As you can see, vicunas are closely related to both llamas and the push-me-pull-yous discovered by Dr. Doolittle. They live in herds and the dominant male spends most of his time loitering on the edge of the herd as a look-out whilst the other animals graze. The guard vicunas often find a high point (such as a hillock) and stand like statues for several minutes at a time. Then, as the herd changes location, they gallop away quickly to a new vantage point. This makes it very easy to take good photos! |
