In this Sept. 20, 2009 photo provided by Southwest Llama Rescue a llama walks near the cog railway tracks near the summit of Pike's Peak near Colorado Springs, Colo. Southwest Llama Rescue is coordinating efforts to capture the llama before it falls prey to mountain lions, coyotes or the coming winter. (AP Photo/Southwest Llama Rescue, Rachel Javorsek)

My best friend just adopted a “rescued” Llama. I asked her “what the hell are you going to do with that thing, have a spitting contest?”, LOL!

Well, they are herd animals and don’t like solitary life...bring out a few llamas, pen them near the fugitive, and it may come close enough to be corralled.

If it’s a male, bring out a few open females and it won’t take long.

When our male alpacas escaped, we opened the gate to the girls’ pasture and in they flew!

They should fly Michelle and Barack out there on separate planes to check on the situation.

Poor thing. Hasn’t anyone reported a missing llama?

Beautiful scenery.

prey to mountain lions, coyotes or the coming winter

I have read somewhere that llamas are often kept with sheep herds as guards against coyotes. They don't like them and can do a stomp job on a good sized coyote.

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.
