More graceful than the Lama,is the Vicuña ( Auchenia vicugna ). Because of its size it stands between the Lama and the Paco; however, it differs from both in the much shorter and crimped wool, which excels in fineness. The crown, the top of the neck, the trunk and the upper parts of the limbs have a peculiar, reddish-yellow color (vicuña or vigogne color); the underside of the neck and the inner surface of the limbs are ocher; the 12 cm. long chest hairs and lower body are white.
