Grooming and Shearing-Why and How to

Maintaining your llama's coat is an important componant of caring for your llama. 
Light wool animals need the least amount of grooming and for this reason are a good choice for guardians.  The short wool animals will molt out their undercoat every two years.  Given brush, trees, or fences they will "self groom"  rubbing against these things to remove the dead undercoat.  For the most part these animals never really look bad. 
Medium and heavy wool animals need to be groomed and shorn every year.  Their coats do not shed or molt out.  They mat and felt close to the skin.
