A one-page encyclopedia entry on the llama, a South American camelid, from Zell's Encyclopedia. It describes the llama genus and its species (vicuna, guanaco, and the domesticated L. glauca and L. pacos), their range in Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Patagonia, and their habits. It notes that llama wool is made into cords, sacks and stuffs for ponchos, and that in Mexico the bones were made into weaving implements. Includes an engraving of a llama (Fig. 1603).
