Guanaco

This creature, in the same family as llamas and camels, is native to the foothills of the Andes of Chile, Peru, Bolivia and Argentina.

 

More aggressive than the llama, a Guanaco will spit, bite, kick with forelegs, and 'neck wrestle' when threatened. However, its main defense is a speedy retreat of up to 56 km/h
