    Most people have no idea how horrific that spit smells/tastes. I used to raise sheep/goats and had a couple alpacas for awhile. One got sick and I had to give it daily injections, and one time it spit right in my mustache. It was SO bad… after like an hour of showering and scrubbing I finally had to shave the mustache because the smell would NOT come out. Which was a huge ordeal for me because like Samson’s hair my mustache is the source of all my power.

    Do they only do this out of spite? I got to pet a llama for the first time and this was my biggest fear, nothing happened but the fear lingered.

    They can be pretty skittish. I don’t know if spite is the right word, more about being irritated that someone is not respecting their space. If they’ve been treated well and socialized well it’s not so much of an issue (unless you’re being a dick), but I’m pretty sure the ones we had came from less than ideal conditions.

    Yes! Came to say this. You look at this and think its saliva, ew yucky, but no this shit is awful. Its basically a cud ball.

    What is cud you ask? Its a bolus of grass and food they chew for ages, swallow, let it digest a little, bring back up into their mouths, and keep chewing.

    I recommend living vicariously through someone else for this experience because i cannot articulate how unbelievably foul it is lol

    Most people don't understand that it's mostly made of half-digested, half-fermented grass and stomach acid, and very little actual spit.

    Llama banana. The way I remember it is llamas have banana shaped ears. Aplacas don't.

    Ah, yes. I will annoy the creature famous for spitting at people who irritate them. I cannot believe I have been spit on

    That ‘spit’ is fucking foul. At least it wasn’t a llama.

    Source: caught a face full from my aunts alpaca as a kid. Caught a face full from her llama a couple years later. Llama legit hurt my face from 15 feet away, plus smelled worse. Both ruined the t shirt I was wearing. I miss those guys, and my aunt.

    Camelids are excellent ballistic physicists, able to figure out required trajectory and velocity, compensating for wind and drag, all without so much as a calculator or even a pen and paper
