Guanaco (Lama guanicoe) standing on steep slope, Torres del Paine National Park, Chile
The guanaco (Lama guanicoe), a camelid native to South America, stands between 1.0 and 1.2 m at the shoulder and weighs 90 to 140 kg. Its color varies very little (unlike the domestic llama), ranging from a light brown to dark cinnamon and shading to white underneath. Guanacos have grey faces and small, straight ears. The name guanaco comes from the South American Quechua word huanaco (modern spelling: wanaku). Young guanacos are called chulengos

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic beauty of a Guanaco standing confidently on a steep slope in Torres del Paine National Park, Chile. The Guanaco, a native South American camelid, stands tall at 1.0 to 1.2 meters at the shoulder and weighs between 90 to 140 kilograms. Its coloration is remarkably consistent, ranging from light brown to dark cinnamon with a white underbelly. With its grey face and small straight ears, the Guanaco exudes an air of elegance against the breathtaking backdrop of nature. The name "Guanaco" originates from the Quechua word "huanaco" which has evolved into "wanaku" in modern spelling. These graceful creatures are known for their resilience and adaptability in harsh environments. In this image captured by Danita Delimont for Fine Art Storehouse, we witness the solitary presence of this magnificent animal amidst untouched wilderness. There are no people present; it's just one animal harmoniously existing within its natural habitat. With horizontal framing that emphasizes both the vastness of its surroundings and its own regal stature, this photograph truly encapsulates the essence of wildlife photography at its finest. It serves as a reminder of our planet's diverse ecosystems and encourages us to appreciate and protect these precious creatures who call it home.
