Where Llamas Live
Llamas are found in several biomes, each offering unique scenery and challenges. In the warm and vibrant Savanna biome, characterized by its yellow grass and acacia trees, llamas mingle with other animals like horses and donkeys. This is a prime location for spotting these creatures.

In the more rugged Windswept Hills and Forest, llamas can often be found grazing in small herds. These areas are less common, but llamas usually appear in groups of 4 to 6, making them ideal for forming caravans.

Additionally, llamas are constant companions of wandering traders, ensuring you can encounter them across various biomes.
Appearance and Features
Llamas in Minecraft come in four primary colors: white, gray, brown, and beige. They are neutral mobs, meaning they won't attack unless provoked. However, when threatened, such as by a zombie, llamas have a unique defense mechanism—they spit at their enemies, adding a layer of protection for players.
