COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) -- A llama is loose near the summit of Colorado's Pikes Peak, and a rescue group says it's probably a domesticated escapee that has little chance of surviving in the wild.

Hmm, I wonder if there are llama wranglers who would go retrieve the misdirected critter? And if someone was missing a llama, seems like this story would have piqued their interest.

Either range, maybe it's a Grand Peak chameleon llama.
