To paraphrase Benjamin Franklin, alpacas are proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. Alpacas are soft and furry; their disposition, gentle and loveable. When cleaned up and transformed into “products”, they are quite delightful.
Why should one love alpacas ? A card from a store in Alberta answers eloquently:

family is known as both pioneer homesteaders in Alberta, and pioneers
within the Canadian Alpaca Industry. In the mid-80's when the
Brewster family began raising Alpacas there were less than thirty
animals in Canada. Today this flourishing industry boasts 6000 of
these gentle, loveable creatures, which produce soft, luxurious
fibre.]](alpaca-reverse.jpg)
