From Metro.co.uk: “Controversy erupts after tired llamas get into taxi“
Llamas may be great at walking but they’re also not too cheap to jump into a cab when they need one.
Not everyone is happy a pair of them got a taxi in Peruvian capital Lima.
It was not because they didn’t think the tourist-carrying animals deserved a break. They actually thought the llamas were being abused.
No, it isn’t abuse to make llamas ride in a Peruvian taxi.
Had it been a New York City taxi, however …

Llama Trivia:
The Spanish word llama is perhaps the most mispronounced Spanish word.
In the Spanish language, the “LL” letter combination is pronounced like a “Y”.
That is why the Spanish word tortilla is pronounced “tore-tee-ya” instead of “tore-tee-la”.
Likewise, the correct pronunciation of llama is “ya-ma” not “la-ma”.
