Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-6848-1010 Behavioural biology of South American domestic camelids: An overview from a welfare perspective 2023 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted South American domestic camelids (SADC) have played a key role in the culture, economy, food security and livelihoods of ancient and contemporary societies in Andean countries. This is especially due to the capacity of alpacas and llamas to produce fibre and meat under extreme geographic and climatic conditions. In addition, the breeding and use of SADC as fibre, meat, pet and sheep herding animals has become popular in Europe, North America and Oceania. However, research and scientific literature concerning the behaviour and welfare of both species is scarce, dispersed, and with little visibility compared to other species. Therefore, the objective of this literature review is to compile the international scientific literature on the most relevant aspects of the behaviour of llamas and alpacas, especially in terms of practical aspects which could be used to improve their welfare in the many production systems in which they are raised. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc-nd http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 1.6 2023 AGRICULTURE, DAIRY & ANIMAL SCIENCE 34 / 80 = 0.425 2023 Q2 T2 0.494 2023 Food Animals 2023 Q2 Animal Science and Zoology 2023 Q2 3.1 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Villarroel, M. 2008 700 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
