Additionally, llamas have longer faces and ears that are more banana-shaped compared to the shorter, more rounded features of alpacas. If you search online for images, you’ll easily see these distinctions.

Why do alpacas not drink much water?

Alpacas, like their close relatives the llamas and their more distant relatives the camels, do not need to drink a lot of water because they are very efficient at retaining and recycling water.

With such low water loss, alpacas don't need to drink much water.
