Are there camels in the Andes?

There are two wild species of camels in the highlands of the South American Andes: vicunas and guanacos. Contrary to their Asian and African counterparts, the two-humped Bactrian camel and the single-humped Arabian camel respectively, vicunas and guanacos do not have any humps and are also much smaller. Guanacos live in open grasslands at a height of up to 4000 m, and vicunas live in higher regions. About 5000 years ago, humans started breeding animals in the Andes, which gave rise to the species of lama and alpaca. The smaller alpacas provide very soft wool.
