Llama facts quiz

Saturday 28th August 2010

Visitors to the annual Trewether Fete will know that LAMA (Lerryn Area Minibus Association) has a stall and that our main attraction is a llama (sometimes accompanied by her baby) brough by Sue Carter from Lostwithiel.  We always appreciate Sue's generous support.  

Every year, we run a quiz based on llamas and this year was no exception.  We had a llama facts quiz with five multiple choice questions and a tie breaker.

Mr D Lloyd, who won the quiz,  generously donated his £5.00 prize to the Alzheimers' Society.

We promised to all those who took part in the quiz that we would publish the answers on the website:

1. LLamas are members of the camel family
2. They live to be about 20 years old
3. Their average birth weigth is 18-35 lbs
4. Llamas eat approximately 4 bales of hay per month
5. The current population of llamas and alpacas in South America is estimated to be about 7 Million

Tie breaker:  a llama is pregnant for 350 days
