Where Llamas Live
Llamas can be found in several biomes, each offering a unique setting for these creatures to thrive. The Savanna biome, characterized by its warm climate, yellow grass, and acacia trees, is a common habitat for llamas. Here, they mingle with other animals like horses and donkeys.

It's also worth noting that llamas always accompany wandering traders, providing another opportunity to encounter these useful mobs.
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 they will defend themselves if necessary. One of their most intriguing features is their ability to spit at enemies, such as zombies, as a form of defense.

How to Tame a Llama
Taming a llama is a straightforward process that involves gaining their 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 by step:
Step 1: Finding
Navigate to the Savanna or mountainous biomes where llamas are commonly found. They often appear in groups, making it easier to tame multiple llamas at once.
