There are two varieties of alpaca, Suri and Huayaca.
1. Alpaca Suri
It is a slim and delicate Alpaca, with long shaggy hair that nearly reaches the ground which has a silkier and shiner appearance.
The young Suri are very fragile and susceptible to changes in climate and food.
2. Alpaca Huayaca
Almost 90% of present-day herds. They are strong and robust with a medium- length fleece that has a fluffy appearance.
They are resilient to cold and have a strong immunity against diseases. They are very good at surviving on the most difficult of pasture lands.
