Shearer gets MANHANDLED By WILD Llama 👀

- This llama was bought at auction and never handled, but it was in dire need of shearing. Alpacas and llamas need to be shorn once a year, otherwise they are at risk of heat stroke and even death.
This llama was very nervous, but after getting it caught up and calmed down and I showed it I wasn't going to hurt it, it stood like a champ for me.
I always try to be as calm and gentle as possible, and to use the minimum amount of force to get the job done - some animals are easier to work with than others, and this llama made me work hard for it #subscribe #shorts #shearing #llama #satisfying #crazyvideo
Good man
Doesn't get emotional or angry ..... Understands the animal
Patience and staying calm is key!
Dang. One never really appreciates how strong these animals are!
They’re so much stronger than us when it comes down to it!
Such a beautiful Animal !!!!!! 💗💖❤️❤💗💖❤️❤💗💖❤️💗💖
Remind me of me trying to put my dog in the cage 😅

Isn’t it? So beautiful
Watch those back legs 😂
They can definitely land a pretty good kick if you let your guard down!
We've had ours for 15 years of shearing, and are handle regularly.
Never underestimate thier strength or going off the rails.
Always have another present and prepared to help rescue you.
They are naturaly prepared to bite you on your lower leg while relentlessly circling you.
Once your on your knees,they bite and pin you down.
Sounds like it could be BMS to me...
Not an easy job!!
Luckily it's only 4 months out of the year!
Awww... is all of that blanket going in the garbage? 😢
Unfortunately yes, this job was an emergency call for some overgrown and very overheated llamas in 105 degree heat. The goal was to get the animals sheared quickly and safely. They had multiple years of growth on them so the fiber was matter and too long to be processed by commercial equipment anyway.
Damn
It was a wild one!
Need more than one person whenever possible I think… stress for both…
Ideally, yes. To be honest, this was a rescue call in Georgia at the beginning of the season and none of the owners (or my new assistant) felt comfortable getting up close and personal with a wild Guanaco.
@@appalachianshearing I’d think a wid guanaco would potentially eat you🤣❣️Thanks for the reply! Sending love, peace, HEALTH, and tons of respect♥️🙋♀️☮️🕉️🥰
@@suecastillo4056 cheers! Thank you for your reply
He's rough and keeps a dirty work space. Wouldnt want him around my animals and certainly not shearing them.
These llamas were rescued at auction and shorn in Georgia in 90º temps - the animals had never been worked with before. The client didn't have any interest in keeping the fiber. We started at 6am to beat the heat of the day and get the animals shorn in a timely manner. This is not how most of my stops go! A conversation was had with the client afterwards to talk about how to improve the experience for the following year. Lastly, this is a wild Guanaco that was imported from South America, and was never handled and is very hard to work with. For the animals health and safety, I had to use some strength to get the animal haltered and sheared. It already had 2 years of growth on it.
Those farmers should have your clients separate and tied by the time you get there. And if they haven't even worked on it, I'd suggest rescheduling so you're not wasted after just one llama.
Most of my clients do have their animals prepared and separated. These llamas all came from auction and it was the clients first experience with shearing. A conversation was had afterwards on how to improve the stop for them, for us, and for their animals!
Jerk - if you'd stop scaring them to death it would be easier for you to shear them.
I hope you use more gentleness ensuring them than you do trying to catch them. Please look at right choice sharing - she has the right idea
Please do some research before you comment with emotion and ignorance. This was a wild guanaco that had never been handled before and was in Georgia in 100°+ heat and hadn’t ever been shorn. It had 2 years worth of fiber on it and was in risk of heat stroke.
I am a professional who has worked with wild llamas for years - once they’re shorn once and realize they feel better and did not get harmed, they become much more comfortable with the process. It is the clients responsibility to work with that animal throughout the year so they are more comfortable with human touch and being on the halter.
Thanks for your comment!
