I love different kinds of animals such as elephants, horses, dogs and deers but here I will talk about an animal which I recently found quite interesting.<\/p>\n<p>Its name is Alpaca. It is a species of South American camelid <strong><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\">descended<\/span> <\/strong>from the vicuna. It looks like a short and woolly camel. It is often confused with Llama which is another South American camelid however alpacas are often smaller than the llamas. Alpacas have a height of 81-99 cms. They weigh between 40-80 kgs. I saw it for the first time in a video posted by PETA (People for the ethical treatment of animals) on its Instagram handle.<\/p>\n<p>It literally looks so cute and adorable. Also my favourite celebrity, Jeffrey Dean Morgan has pet alpacas at his farmhouse in New York. He keeps posting their videos on his Facebook and Instagram account. They are friendly and pleasant creatures and are safe to be around. They do not have any sharp teeth, horns or hooves. They are intelligent and gentle animals with a cute face. Moreover, they make excellent pets and are quite useful. Their wool is extremely warm, soft and has a high insulating value. They love eating pasture grass, carrots, apples, broccoli stalks and turnips. They respond very well to treats and are <strong><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\">affectionate<\/span> <\/strong>towards their masters. Alpacas communicate through body language. The most common is spitting when they are in distress, fearful, or mean to show <span style=\"color: #00ccff;\"><strong>dominance<\/strong><\/span>. For all these interesting qualities, I would love to see and pet an alpaca in real one day.<\/p>\n<p>Vocabulary:<\/p>\n<p><strong>reverence<\/strong>: a feeling of admiration<\/p>\n<p><strong>fascinating<\/strong>: extremely interesting<\/p>\n<p><strong>descended<\/strong>: come low<\/p>\n<p><strong>affectionate<\/strong>: a feeling of love<\/p>\n<p><strong>dominance<\/strong>: quality of best among other things<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Describe an interesting animal What it looks like When you saw it Where you saw it Explain why it is interesting &nbsp; I have immense reverence in my heart for&#8230;<\/p>\n <a href=\"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/describe-an-interesting-animal\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading <i class=\"fas fa-arrow-right\"><\/i><\/a>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2719,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2959,6],"tags":[1573,1574,139,2186,2699,2187],"yst_prominent_words":[2925,506,1434,2058,2285,2882],"class_list":["post-2717","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cue-cards","category-speaking","tag-ielts-speaking","tag-ielts-speaking-cue-card","tag-ielts-speaking-tips","tag-ielts-speaking-vocabulary","tag-recent-ielts-exam-question","tag-topic-related-vocabulary"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2717","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2717"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2717\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3252,"href":"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2717\/revisions\/3252"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2719"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2717"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2717"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2717"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brpaper.com\/ielts\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=2717"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
