Guanaco

Guanaco


The guanaco  is a camelid native to South America that stands between 1 and 1.2 metres  at the shoulder and weighs about 90 kg. The colour varies very little  ranging from a light brown to dark cinnamon and shading to white underneath. Guanacos have grey faces and small straight ears. The name guanaco comes from the South American language Quechua word wanaku. Young guanacos are called chulengo.
