 A "chirra" is a critter vaguely similar to a llama that is used as a pack
animal, wool source, and (occasionally) meat source in the northern,
mountainous regions of Mercedes Lackey's fictional Valdemar. That's where I
came up with this idea of an extinct, horse-sized llama.

Yes, a secret llama. *LOL*
