They may not be the most familiar sight in the Kent countryside, but these furry chaps are to become permanent fixtures at Kent Life, near Maidstone.

The three friendly and mischievous alpacas are making their home at the Sandling farm from next month.

They are all boys and just 18 months old, and will be introduced to their new home on Saturday, February 4 to welcome visitors during half term.

They will be settling in alongside the attraction's other animals, including sheep, donkeys and rabbits.

But they don't yet have names and managers are hoping visitors can come up with ones for them.

General manager, Emily Hirons, said: "The whole team here at Kent Life are really excited to be able to welcome the new residents and these amazing animals provide the opportunity for our visitors to experience something completely different from the normal here, and provide an extra ’wow‘ factor for a day out at Kent Life."
