Alpaca is not generally eaten in North America but is consumed in South America and elsewhere. Here in the USA where some people still think alpacas are worth thousands of dollars, they are raised primarily as a tax shelter. Yes, that's right, I said it! Other people believe their days of high value are over and are dumping them for as little as $100. A good lamb will cost you more than than that. This is not just anecdotal writing, for I have purchased these animals for even less than that. We at Cota Farms raise and sell alpaca meat; this is a fairly new thing for us and I don't presently know of anyone else who offers this type of product. It is certain that soon, we will not be the only ones doing this. The more successful we are, the faster we will be copied. For more info, contact me at CotaFarms.com
