The alpaca herds of the mountains of Peru are dying off in considerable number, causing a great deal of distress and hardship for those who raise and tend the herds. The cause, it is too damn cold. The government says 50,000 of the animals have died from the cold. They estimate this cold snap could kill off 300,000 of the critters.
A lot of sheep are also dying from the cold, but since they are not nearly as cute as the alpacas people don’t care so much, unless of course they are your sheep and you need them to keep your family alive.
