Where Llamas Live

Savanna — A warm, inviting biome characterized by yellow grass and acacia trees, where llamas roam alongside other animals like horses and donkeys.

Additionally, llamas are constant companions to wandering traders, making them more accessible in various biomes.

Appearance and Features

Llamas in Minecraft come in four primary colors: white, gray, brown, and beige. These neutral creatures won’t attack unless provoked, but they will defend themselves if necessary. One of their most intriguing behaviors is their ability to spit at enemies, providing a unique form of defense. For instance, if a zombie threatens a llama, it will retaliate by spitting.
