(AP) — A Fort Calhoun family says one of its alpacas is missing, and family members fear the native South American animal may have been stolen.
Kay Ryschon said the Suri alpaca was last seen around 3 p.m. Tuesday and does not believe it would have left the herd on its own accord.
The female alpaca, named Summer, is 7 years old, 5 feet tall at the head and is micro-chipped.
Ryschon said it’s believed Summer was taken from the herd through a section of a fence on the acreage north of Omaha.
Anyone with information on the case could contact the Washington County Sheriff’s Office.
