Where Llamas Live
Llamas can be found in the warm, yellow-grassed Savanna biome, alongside other animals like horses and donkeys. This biome is characterized by its acacia trees and is a perfect spot to encounter these creatures.

Don’t forget, llamas are constant companions of wandering traders, adding to their accessibility in the game.
Appearance and Features
Llamas in Minecraft come in four distinct colors: white, gray, brown, and beige. These neutral mobs won’t initiate attacks on players unless provoked, but they will defend themselves if necessary. One of their unique abilities is spitting at enemies, which can be particularly entertaining to witness, especially when they spit at zombies or other threats.

For a touch of personalization, llamas can be adorned with carpets in various colors, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your caravan. Additionally, llamas can serve as a protective measure, using their spitting ability to deter enemy mobs and buy you some time during encounters.
How to Tame a Llama
Taming a llama is a straightforward process that involves gaining its trust. Unlike horses or donkeys, llamas don’t require a saddle, but they can’t be directly controlled. Here’s how to tame a llama:
Step 1: Finding
Venture into the Savanna or mountainous biomes where llamas are commonly found in groups, making it easier to tame multiple at once.

Step 3: Using a Lead
While llamas can’t be ridden, they can be led with a leash. Attach a lead to one tamed llama, and nearby llamas will follow, forming a caravan. This feature turns your llamas into a mobile inventory system.
