The guanaco or (a very close relative to it) is the wild ancestor of the llama.
I did call these foxes zorros.
I personally like the Lycalopex genus name. It means wolf-fox in Greek, and that’s what they are. Not only do they look like coyotes, they are more closely related to wolves and coyotes than to true foxes.
This particular species appears to be the chilla or “South American gray fox,” a name I refuse to use because Urocyon, my gray fox, is also found in South America.
Culpeos also annoy guanacos.
Both take their crias.
And the best offense is a good defense.
So the domestic llama naturally hates the very idea of anything that looks like dog.
That’s why they are so good at keeping coyotes out of flocks.
They are dog haters from way back.
I kicked a llama’s ass one time. Pinned him
To the ground and made him call me daddy.
