Elvis
Full Name: Elvis
Gender: Male (gelding)
Character: Big and powerful - but curious and a little shy
Elvis came to the Hudson Valley Llamas from a farm in Rhode
Island. Before that, we learned he had lived in New Hampshire
and before that he lived near Philadelphia. He is one
well-traveled llama! We intend for the Triple-B Ranch to be his
forever home.
Despite being a big boy (a really big boy), Elvis didn't seem to
demonstrate the need to challenge our alpha male, Silver, for
dominance when he first arrived. Neither did any of our other
llamas challenge Elvis in any way - although Silver did give him
a good, long stare for about three days. So we guess Elvis knows
he's big and could be tough if he wanted to - but he's chosen to
just be mellow.
Elvis has one old battle-scar to show that he's seen a little
action. His left ear has a horizontal cut about 1/3 of the way
across, which causes it to flop over. We think it's cute, but we
wonder if he got in a fight with a male that still had fighting
teeth, did someone tag him, or did it just get caught on
something? But it doesn't matter.
