\nAlpacas are South American camelids and were first
\ndomesticated more than six thousand years ago in the Andes mountains of
\nPeru.  BY the 1500\u2019s there were large
\nherds of Alpaca throughout South America, but these herds were decimated by the
\nSpanish conquest of  the Incan Empire of
\nPeru.<\/div>\n
\nAlpacas are bred for their fiber.  Their exquisite, supple fiber is heavier when compared to wool
\nand most fibers are white, range of browns, black and spotted..<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nBolivia Fair Trade states the\u201d Alpaca fiber is 5 times
\nwarmer then sheep wool, stronger than mohair, more luxurious than cashmere and
\nsmother than silk.  The fiber is
\nelastic, hypoallergenic\u2026because it does not contain lanolin.  The smooth cell structure, with its
\nmicroscopic air pockets contributes to the creation of lightweight apparel with
\nhigher insulation value and thermal capacity than almost any other animal
\nfiber\u201d. <\/div>\n
