Advanced reproductive technologies in South American camelids.
The authors chose to discuss only a small portion of the potential advanced reproductive technologic procedures that hold promise in fertility management of llamas. The future of this area is very bright; one's lack of imagination, simple prejudice, or careless planning are the only factors that will limit progress. As these techniques are accepted, they should be used carefully and judiciously to maximize reproductive potential, and not simply to maximize profits by unscrupulous individuals.
