Best Answer

A very good example of a domesticated animal native of South America is the Llama. Llamas belong to the family of camelids, and they are used as a pack animal by Andeans, specially Peruvians, for centuries. Llamas are noble and intelligent animals that can be easily domesticated, that's why they are highly appreciated.

There are six camelids - Old World camelids are the dromedary (one-humped camel) and the Bactrian (two-humped camel). New World camelids are the llama, alpaca, guanaco, and vicuna. So yes, they are related.
