This wool is of much value, about double that of llama or sheep wool. The centre for the trade in this product is Arequipa, whence the wool is exported to Liverpool, and Peru satisfies more than three-quarters of the world's consumption of alpaca wool. The export of Peruvian wool for the last few years has been as follows, in tons : — 1900 1901 1902 1903 1904 1905 1906 3,534 3,800 3,660 4,150 3,550 4,510 4,897 The value of the export for 1906 was ;^5SO,ooo.
THE SIERRA— IJVE STOCK 283 The vicuna... is not a domestic animal, but roams in herds about the great tablelands and high bleak valleys in a wild state. Its colour is a ruddy yellow, and its fur, or rather wool, is valuable, being as fine almost as silk, and is worth about four times as much as that of the alpaca. Its flesh furnishes an excellent kind of " venison." The paco-vicufia is a cross between the vicufla and the alpaca which of recent years has been obtained. The animal is domesticated ; its wool is of better quality and larger staple than that of its progenitors, being as long as that of the alpaca, and as silky as that of the vicufla.
