Blackpool alpacas feast on donated Christmas trees
A herd of alpacas has been dining out on old Christmas trees for a belated festive feast.
The team at Lowland Farm Alpacas in Blackpool has been feeding the animals, which are usually found in South America, donated trees.
They provide a substitute for the plants normally found on the continent.
Mike Barnes, a volunteer at the farm, said it was "good for recycling and the environment".
