How do llamas give brith?

Llamas give birth in a standing position, and the process usually takes about 30 minutes. The baby llama, called a cria, is born head first and weighs between 15 and 25 pounds. The cria can walk and nurse within a few hours of being born.

Llamas are pregnant for about 11 months, and they usually give birth to a single cria. However, twins are not uncommon.

After giving birth, the llama will lick the cria clean and help it to stand up. The cria will then nurse for several months. Llamas are very protective of their young, and they will often chase away any animals that come near them.

Crianças are born with a full coat of fur, and they are able to walk and run within a few hours of being born. They will stay with their mothers for up to a year, learning how to survive in the wild.
