Wool is a natural fibre made by animals as their covering to keep themselves warm. In nature, this is shed each year. The fine crinkled wool fibres often lie beneath coarser 'guard hairs'.
Animals that produce commercial wool are Musk-ox (not in NZ), Sheep, Alpaca, Vicuna, Goats (Mohair); & rabbits (Angora) and Guinea pigs (not in NZ).
Wool is indeed produced in New Zealand. New Zealand is the second largest producer of wool.
