Owyhee Abnormals: Llamas

     Being away from my computer, I thought I'd take the opportunity to mention some things that wouldn't warrant a full post. Llamas would fit in this category. While not as much agriculture in the industry sense, they are agriculture in the hobby sense. Llamas produce wool. As to who shears them and buys the wool, I haven't the slightest idea.


     After which, they look preposterous. Llama wool has no lanolin in it, so it doesn't require the processing that sheep's wool does. Even so, they're not a popular pasture animal here. Mostly you only see them in groups of two or three, just there to keep the weeds down. But maybe someday...
