When people think of farm animals, the first one that comes to mind is likely cows or pigs.
But, there are a large number of different animals being farmed in Wisconsin, including alpacas and llamas.
These long-necked animals will be featured this weekend at the Farm Wisconsin Discovery Center during its third annual Alpaca Lama Extravaganza.
In partnership with LondonDairy Alpaca Ranch and Black Frog Farm, this event allows guests the opportunity to meet and pet the animals as they learn more about them, and will highlight the unique fiber of alpacas and llamas and how it is commonly used.
While enjoying the animals, visitors will be able to learn from the experts who own and care for them.
Attendees will learn from first-hand experiences what it is like to raise these animals and what makes the two so different.
Access to this event comes with normal admission to the Discovery Center located at 7001 Gass Lake Road in Manitowoc.
