The menagerie was just a selection of the population that live with Carol Rix on her property at The Summit. Carol has been a regular at the Stanthorpe Show for 17 years. This was a return visit to the Tenterfield Show after having come down for a day some years back.
This time she and entourage were on-site for both days of the show, thanks to some transportation help from Peter Chittick and other volunteers.
In addition to the alpacas and llamas Carol brought along a donkeys, horse, sheep, goats, ducklings, chickens and puppies, and all were popular with children big and small.
