Answer

LLAMA

A llama is a domesticated South American camelid that has been used as a pack animal for thousands of years by Andean cultures. Native to the high Andes of Peru, Bolivia, and Chile, llamas are prized for their soft wool, their ability to carry heavy loads at high altitudes, and their calm demeanor. The word comes from Spanish, which borrowed it from the Quechua language.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features a double letter, which can be tricky. When you see repeated letters in your guesses showing partial matches, consider whether the same letter might appear twice. Words with double L are more common than you might think!
