For several weeks, a strange mysterious visitor has been haunting Pikes Peak, amusing the tourists and confounding efforts to catch it the train. Can you guess what the strange Mysterious visitor is to "Pikes Peak"? Well it’s a llama.The "lone llama of Pikes Peak," who species is normally from high in the Andes Mountains of South America, to the llama must believe that it’s just like home. Officials say that it’s healthy and has been eating fine, but lonely, even though it has token interest in a herd of bighorn sheep. I found it funny that a llama was all up 14,110 ft at Pikes Peak. because I was there last weekend and it was cold like jackets and every thing, and I had know clue that a llama has been walking around chasing the trains that go up and down the mountain. Also I felt sad because there’s just him and no other kind of his species, and how he’s joined a herd of bighorn sheep.But with winter coming there are some hungry animals out there like mountain lions coyotes but there is a plan to find out how to capture the animal. A rescue teams said that they will also put the animal back to were it came from and to a herd of its own kind. I was thinking that "how could they know were the llama is at all times, do they just have someone watching it or do they just wait for it to come around again. Some llama lovers said that “there is a bigger threat than loneliness" and I totally agree for what they're saying if they don’t move the llama soon something will happen. But you never know because they can’t control the circle of life that’s what my dad always said to me when I was little. this article was really amazing on how far an animal will travel from were it normally comes from, and how the llama is just having fun and showing off to the people that visit "Pikes Peak National Park".
