See Two Different Breeds of Alpacas: Huacaya and Suri

Since 1991, the Alpaca Competition has showcased the country’s finest Huacaya and Suri alpacas. Australia is home to the world’s second largest alpaca industry – right behind Peru – leading the way in breeding and producing luxurious alpaca fibre. Known for its softness and warmth, alpaca fleece is crafted into beautiful garments and homewares.
