what is their efficiency in muslim-hunting?
Joe Schmo:
They'd make a nice rug and/or coat.

are they kosher? can you eat em too?
Llama meat was the big jazz for a while.
I probably wouldn't eat these guys though, they are cute... like something out of a Japanese cartoon.

Yes they are Kosher, and no I never heard of people eating them here. In the Alps I would say they would. They are used as pack animals, food as in meat, milk and their wool for clothes. Very part of the animal is used.
Alpaca wool is very light very fine, and very warm. :)

No they first came from South America, but they were taken to Italy because of the super fine wool, then the border region took them and they are happy there, as an extra herd for alot of the poor farmers and pays good money.
Alpacas are kept in herds that graze on the level heights of the Andes of Ecuador, southern Peru, northern Bolivia, and northern Chile at an altitude of 3500 to 5000 meters above sea-level, throughout the year.
