Shall We Dance? Alpaca ShearingПереглядів: 294These two gentlemen, from New Zealand, spend a couple of months touring the U.K. and shearing circa 4,000 alpacas. Our three are old men and their fleece isn't of particularly good quality. But we have them sheared because it's healthier for the alpacas.

Alpaca Shearing at Lucies FarmПереглядів: 309This is the third alpaca to be sheared. He watched the shearers tie up the other alpacas' legs, so he's a bit more crafty.
