alpaca Q & A
Q: Are alpacas harmed for their fleece or fur?
A: Alpacas are shorn once a year, helping to prevent diseases that arise when their fleece becomes matted. Alpacas are never harmed for their fur.
Q: What sort of standard do you follow for obtaining alpaca?
A: All of our shearing processes follow the protocol of “The Technical Norms for Shearing and Handling Alpaca Fiber Fleece” approved by the Peruvian Ministry of Production, which enforces humane treatment of these gentle creatures.
Q: What is the difference between alpaca and baby alpaca?
A: Unlike its name, baby alpaca fibers are not shorn from baby alpacas. Baby alpaca fiber is shorn from the neck, chest and back of adult alpacas and is finer and softer than regular alpaca.
