ALPACA AND LLAMA EXPERIENCES

WHAT ARE THE MAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ALPACAS AND LLAMAS? •

Llamas have large, banana-shaped ears, while alpacas have short ears.

The face of a llama is longer than that of an alpaca, which is quite short and blunt.

Llamas grow larger and taller than alpacas.

Alpacas generally have shaggy fleece, which is much finer than the llama’s fleece, which is more coarse.

WHERE TO FIND ALPACAS AND LLAMAS NEAR BRISBANE TREVENA GLEN FARM

WHITE RIDGE FARM

Location: Mount Samson

Location: Elimbah

Located a short 40-minute drive from Brisbane, Trevena Glen Farm has a variety of animals, fun experiences, and tours for the whole family. Sheep, donkeys, goats, pigs, rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, and turkeys await visitors. If it is just the alpacas and llamas you have come for, then you will delight at the chance to walk these creatures around the farm and learn more about them and their mannerisms.

You can pat and feed the friendly animals at White Ridge Farm on the northside of Brisbane, but will you be able to tell the difference between the llamas and alpacas? Other animals on site include a camel, donkeys, guinea pigs, sheep, goats, chickens, ducks, and more. Aside from the animals, guests can play putt putt, enjoy the playground, or go on a bumpy tractor ride around the farm.
