The term 'LLAMA's cousin' can refer to two different animals: the ALPACA and the vicuña. The ALPACA is a domesticated species of South American camelid, which is closely related to the LLAMA. It is a large mammal with long, soft wool that is used for making clothing and other items. The vicuña is a wild species of South American camelid that is also closely related to the LLAMA. It is smaller than the ALPACA and has a much finer and softer wool, which is highly valued for its luxurious feel. Both the ALPACA and the vicuña are important sources of wool in South America.
