Llama Habitats
Llamas are primarily found in two biomes:
- Savannas: These warm biomes, characterized by yellow grass and acacia trees, often host llamas alongside horses and donkeys.

- Windswept Hills and Forests: Less common, but llamas can also be found grazing in small herds (4-6) in these areas, ideal for caravan formation.

Additionally, wandering traders always have llamas in tow.
Appearance and Traits
Llamas appear in four main colors: white, gray, brown, and beige. They are neutral mobs, only attacking if provoked, but will defend themselves by spitting at aggressors (e.g., zombies).

Llama Utility
Llamas are invaluable for carrying supplies. Attaching a chest significantly increases your carrying capacity, especially useful during exploration. Furthermore, forming a llama caravan multiplies this advantage.

Beyond cargo, llamas provide a degree of player protection. While not powerful combatants, their spitting ability can deter and distract hostile mobs, giving you a tactical advantage. They can also be aesthetically customized with carpets.
Taming a Llama: A Step-by-Step Guide
Taming a llama doesn't require a saddle, but it does involve a process:
Step 1: Finding a Llama
Locate llamas in savanna or mountainous biomes. They often appear in groups, allowing for multiple taming attempts.

Step 2: Mounting
Right-click (or use the appropriate action button on your platform) to mount the llama. It will attempt to buck you off; persist until hearts appear above it, signifying a successful taming.

Step 3: Using a Lead
While llamas can't be ridden directly, a lead allows control. Attaching a lead to one tamed llama will cause nearby llamas to follow, creating a caravan – a mobile inventory!

Attaching a Chest
Simply right-click on a tamed llama with a chest in your hand. The chest's inventory size (up to 15 slots) is random and cannot be removed once attached. Access the chest by holding Shift and right-clicking.
Adding a Carpet
Right-click on a tamed llama with a carpet to add a decorative touch. Different carpet colors create unique patterns.
