Where Llamas Live
Llamas can be found in the warm and vibrant Savanna biome, characterized by its yellow grass and acacia trees. They share this habitat with other animals such as horses and donkeys.

Additionally, llamas inhabit the rare Windswept Hills and Forest biomes, often grazing in small herds. These areas typically feature groups of 4 to 6 llamas, ideal for forming caravans.

Llamas also accompany wandering traders, making them a frequent sight in various parts of the game world.
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 will defend themselves by spitting at threats. For instance, if a zombie approaches, a llama will retaliate with its spit, adding a layer of defense for players.

Ways to Use Llamas
Llamas serve as excellent cargo carriers. By attaching a chest, players can store essential resources, making exploration more manageable. Moreover, forming a caravan with multiple llamas significantly increases your transport capacity.

You can also customize llamas with carpets available in numerous colors, adding a personal touch to your caravan. Beyond transportation, llamas offer a defensive advantage; their spitting can deter enemy mobs, giving players precious time to strategize.
How to Tame a Llama
Taming a llama involves gaining its trust, a process that differs slightly from taming horses or donkeys. Here's how you can make these creatures your adventure companions:
Step 1: Finding
Venture into the Savanna or mountainous biomes where llamas often appear in groups, facilitating the taming of multiple animals at once.

Step 2: Mounting
Approach a llama and interact by right-clicking or pressing the appropriate action button. You'll mount the llama, but it will attempt to buck you off. Persist until hearts appear above the llama, indicating successful taming.

Step 3: Using a Lead
Since llamas can't be ridden traditionally, use a lead to guide them. Attaching a lead to one tamed llama will prompt others nearby to follow, forming a caravan—a key feature for mobile inventory management.

How to Attach a Chest to a Llama
Attaching a chest to a llama is straightforward. Simply hold the chest and interact with the llama. The chest will provide a random number of slots, up to 15. Note that once attached, the chest cannot be removed, so plan your inventory accordingly. To access the chest, hold Shift and interact with the llama.

Creating a caravan is equally simple. Attach a lead to one tamed llama, and others within 10 blocks will follow. The maximum caravan size is 10 llamas.
