Can you ride a llama? Only children under 50 pounds could ride a llama preferably on a well made pack saddle —although great packers, llamas can not withstand weight directly on their spine; pack saddles distribute the weight evenly over the ribcage. We can use the wool, they're used to mountainous regions, and the Canaries have a South-American link that should facilitate getting one. Apparently they can also be used as guard animals. Buying one in the UK is out; i saw an alpaca for sale at 4000 pounds... Also, they're herd animals and one needs to get at least 2. I saw American prices of around $ 1500 [and up]. I sent an email to an Argentinian breeder asking for prices and if the animals can be used for riding. Everyone seems to be claiming that they're easy animals. They can be milked and are edible too... the reply from the Argentinian breeder: "llamas can be used for riding, are nice pets and packs animals. Price is 1000 U$D each, with quarentine and sanity requirements."nondisclosed_email@example.com (theseed)Sat, 06 Nov 2010 05:12:45 +0000 for transportationhttps://b2012overleven.runboard.com/p189,from=rss#post189https://b2012overleven.runboard.com/p189,from=rss#post189Access to and beyond the home could be made feasible for people who don't hike well if they went 'horse'-back. Also, carrying gallons of seawater and other things might become much less of an issue. It would be an investment because the animal has to be fed, as well, but maybe at a later stage this all wouldn't be a problem, i.e. housing, grooming, feeding, etc. Donkey [females] in Holland appear to be going for € 400nondisclosed_email@example.com (theseed)Fri, 05 Nov 2010 08:34:25 +0000
