Differences between Llamas and Alpacas

Llamas are way bigger than alpacas with an average weight of 400 to 500 pounds. Alpacas, on the other hand, have a maximum weight of about 200 pounds.

The fibers of an alpaca are softer, curlier, and warmer than that of a llama. They are often used in making socks and sweaters while llama fibers are used for rugs.

Even though llamas are bigger, they are friendlier than alpacas. The founder of Aurora Alpaca and Llama Farm says "Alpacas are more like cats while llamas are like dogs". So we can say that alpacas are cute but aloof, treating you like they own you instead of the other way round.
