Today in the U.S. llamas are bred and raised for packing, wool production, cart pulling, animal facilitated therapy, companion animals, golf caddies, exhibition in shows, parades and fairs, and guardians of other livestock such as sheep. Llamas are becoming increasingly popular as a project animal for 4-H, Future Farmers of America (FFA), and other youth activities. 

Exhibiting at fairs, shows, public functions and auctions can be a rewarding experience.  Local associations also sponsor shows and public functions. They are an excellent opportunity to meet other llama breeders as well as gaining a wealth of information concerning llamas.  Showing your llama can be an excellent opportunity to have a great deal of fun as well as spending more personal time with your llama.
