Question: is a llama a ruminant?
Answer: Llamas are not ruminants, pseudo-ruminants, or modified ruminants. ... Ruminants have four compartments (cows, sheep, goats), whereas llamas have only three stomach compartments: the rumen, omasum, and abomasum. In addition, the llama (and other camelids) have an extremely long and complex large intestine (colon).
