The vicuña typically inhabits the high Andes mountains in South America. They are often found at altitudes ranging from 3,200 to 4,800 meters (10,500 to 15,700 feet) above sea level, particularly in countries like Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, and northern Chile. These animals thrive in the cold, arid environments of the altiplano, where they graze on grasses and other vegetation.
