Abstract

Perito Moreno, Argentina The Andes Mountain range extends over the western coast of South America for more than 7,000 kilometers. Camelids such as the llama, guanaco, alpaca, and vicuña are primarily found on the Altiplano at elevations ranging from 3,400 to 3,900 meters (11,200 to 12,800 ft), though they can also thrive at lower elevations. The vegetation adapts to the climate, with the southern areas having poor, desert-like vegetation and higher altitude areas featuring steppe vegetation. [Extracted from the article]
