The Guanaco is a camelid native to South America. They're around 1.3 meters high at the shoulders and around 2 meters long. They're brown and white underneath with grey faces and small ears. They have two coats, coarse guard hairs and a soft undercoat which is said to be similar to cashmere. They are the wild ancestors of the Llama though those have also been marginally crossbred with alpacas.
Guanacos live in steppes, scrublands and mountainous regions. They can live in altitudes of up to 4,000 meters. They can survive even in the desert in fog oasis called Loma where moist fog gets carried from the pacific towards the Atacama desert, where the moist water sticks to cacti and lichens like a sponge and the animals can eat them to hydrate.
Guanacos live in herds comprised of multiple females, their offspring and a dominant male. Males without a herd form bachelor herds which can consist of up to 50 individual adults, 5 times as many as in reproductive herds. Mating season is from November to Febuary with violent fights over the reproducing females. A single offspring, called "chulengo", is born after a gestation period of almost an entire year. They can walk immediately after birth and males are chased out of the herd at a year old by the dominant male. As their domesticated counterpart, they spit if threatened and alert their herd with a high-pitched bleating sound.
