“A pair of Huacaya alpacas, who have lived at the City Farm at VDNKh since 2018, recently welcomed their new offspring. This is the third addition to their alpaca family, following the birth of Chocolate Bar just a year ago and Paco even earlier. The birth of the baby alpaca, which took about an hour, it went smoothly. Initially, the baby weighed 4 kg, but quickly stood up and began to explore the surroundings. The cub, accompanied by his parents Pedro and Dosei, now lives in a separate enclosure and is actively getting to know the world around him. Over the next six months, he will feed on the milk of his mother,” the press service said.

Visitors wishing to see the baby alpaca can do so by carefully inspecting the enclosure. As the cub gets stronger, it is expected that it will approach visitors on its own.

“Urban Farm” is home to a wide variety of animalsincluding alpacas, goats, cows, sheep, rabbits, nutria, raccoons, deer, donkeys, peacocks, geese and ducks, providing visitors with a unique and enriching experience.
