Walking with Alpacas

Tweet

Last August I had the pleasure of visiting an alpaca farm in the Isle of Wight. It’s called WestWight Alpacas. One of the activities they offer was walking with Alpaca. And I’d say one of the best moments in my life. Walking an alpaca is a bit trickier than a dog. Because first, they are significantly taller, stronger, and faster than us and may end up dragging us if they think we are not dominant. Second, they tend to spit when they are angry or scared. Third, they will tend to follow whatever the front alpaca is doing may it be eating the bush or pooping. We had a walk around the park and I was initially scared but ended up being attached to my brown alpaca.
