Minerální metabolismus kamelidů
Menšíková, Petra
The aim of the bachelor's thesis was to provide an overview of the zoological classification of camelids, their physiological and anatomical specificities – with a focus on the specifics of mineral metabolism. The basic mineral substances, their importance and recommended proportion in the diet of camelids and health disorders caused by their excess or deficiency are described in the paper. Furthermore, the sources and requirements of these minerals, the possibilities of their supplementation and the evaluation of their reserves in the organism are described. In the practical part, the evaluation of the supply of mineral substances to the organism of alpacas bred in the conditions of the Czech Republic based on blood tests is elaborated and the values are compared with the recommendations in the literature. Based on the biochemical analyses of the examined animals, no major deficiencies were found, the situation has improved as compared to previously published results and the animals are sufficiently supplied with minerals.

Význam vitaminů ve výživě velbloudovitých
Turčeková, Radka
Turčeková, R. The efect of the vitamins in camelids diet. Bachelor thesis. Brno, 2017. The main goal of this thesis is to describe, on the basis of a literary review, the zoological classification and morfological and physiological traits of camelids with a focus on the metabolism of vitamins. Because of a number of physiological adaptations for living in their natural environment it is necessary to provide a higher dose of some vitamins (mainly vitamin D) while keeping camelids in different climate conditions. This thesis subsequently presents all basic vitamins soluble in water and in fat, describes their physiological functions and health issues related to their lack or redundance. Circumscribed specifics of the vitamin metabolism of camelids show a need of knowledge and respect of physiological traits and coherent nutrition needs of species bred out of the region of their natural presence.

Zásady chovu lam v podmínkách České republiky
Zemániková, Natálie
The content of my bachelor thesis is a summary of current information about the principles of llama breeding in the Czech Republic. It also deals with selected types of lam. Four species are mentioned, namely: llama llama, guanaco llama, lama vicuna and alpaca llama. Furthermore, there is some information about the history, present or domestication of lam, but most of the work is devoted to the requirements for their breeding, which is important before starting to breed thoroughly study to avoid some undesirable problems that might occur over time. An important chapter is mainly how to start a lamb breeding, then how their breeding environment, specifically enclosure or housing, should look like. Other important issues include skin care, hair or hooves, and the principles of overall cleaning and disinfection of the stable. Next, the Lam registration is mentioned. Finally, there are described animal products that can be obtained from llamas, the quality of milk and meat, and also statistics of llamas in the Czech Republic and abroad.

Parasites in Lama spp. and in Vicugna vicugna
Záhorková, Veronika ; Langrová, Iva (advisor) ; Nechybová, Stanislava (referee)
Parasites in llama spp. and Vicugna Summary This bachelor thesis is written in the form of a literature review and discusses the most common internal and external parasites in llamas of the genera Lama and Vicugna. The mentioned parasites are taxonomically classified. There is summarized information regarding the occurrence, life cycles and causes of diseases. Described next are the clinical signs and subsequent treatment. Among the internal parasites causing protozoan infections belong Eimeria lamae, Eimeria alpacae, Eimeria punoensis, Eimeria ivitaensis, Eimeria macusaniensis, Eimeria peruviana. Further including Cryptosporidium parvum, Sarcocystis aucheniae and Giardia intestinalis. Of the phylum of flatworms described here are Fasciola hepatica, Dicrocoelium dendriticum, Moniezia expansa, Moniezia benedeni a Echinococcus granulosus. The phylum of nematodes is represented by Trichuris tenuis, Trichuris ovis, Capillaria sp., Lamanema chavezi, Nematodirus battus, Nematodirus lamae, Nematodirus spathiger, Nematodirus filicollis, Nematodirus lanceolatus, further including Haemonchus contortus, Trichostrongylus colubriformis, Trichostrongylus axei, Camelostrongylus mentulatus, Parelaphostrongylus tenuis, Mazamastrongylus peruvianus, Teladorsagia spp., Ostertagia ostertagi, Ostertagia lyrata, Marshallagia marshalli, Oesophagostomum venulosum and Oesophagostomum columbianum. An important group of external parasites consists of representatives of the family of Sarcoptidae and Psoroptidae, mites causing scabies. In llamas and alpacas we can encounter three types of scabies, namely sarcoptes (Sarcoptes scabiei), psoroptes (Psoroptes spp.) and chorioptes (Chorioptes bovis). The most common is chorioptic scabies, whose treatment is more difficult compared to sarkoptic and psoroptic scabies. Other mites in llama spp. and Vicugna are classified as Demodex spp. Among the parasitic insects in llamas belong sucking lice Microthoracius mazzai, Microthoracius minor, Microthoracius praelongiceps and biting lice Bovicola breviceps. For a better understanding of the issues I conducted a coprological examination of faecal samples of llamas and sheep using a concentrated McMaster method in compliance with FAO. Through examination parasites of the genera Eimeria, Nematodirus, Trichuris and the suborder Strongylida were detected. keywords: parasite, llama, alpaca

Issues of llamas breeding
Lindová, Alžběta ; Fantová, Milena (advisor) ; Nohejlová, Lenka (referee)
This literature search deals with breading llamas. At first, it focuses on taxonomy of llamas, which follows the classification of Wilson and Reeder (2005).
The development of camel family is described in the chapters called Origins and Domestication, including their gradual migration. In this chapter there are also mentioned different views on domestication, which happend from guanaco to llama and from vicugna to alpaca. This claim was confirmed by DNA analysis.
The parts called Species and Standards of Llamas are featuring about physical characteristics, distribution, enviroment, way of life, reproduction, nutrition of llamas (Including specifics of guanaco and subspecies).
Technology and breeding techniques are dealing with fencing and animal housing, which has to be free. Llamas are modesty but need specific conditons of breeding. The conditions of breeding llamas and camels are defined in the Decree no. 346/2006 Coll. (Anex no. 5 The determination of breeding animals).
Another part of this research work is dedicated to the digesteve system of llamas (the non ruminants). It is focusing on the need and importance of proteins, minerals, vitamins, seeds, water, pasture and hay.
Reproduction of llamas describes its own reproduction. It is the only even toed ungulates mating lying down. Hereafter there are defined the most common ways of determing gestation period, gestation in different species and delivery (the delivery takes part mostly in the morning hours).
Following chapter is discussing the topic Care of baby. Also there is mentioned the percentage of componets of colostrum and milk.
The wool produced by a llama is very soft, lanolin free, hypoallergenic, odorless and shiny. All the characteristics of wool, physical and chemical contens of wool are dealt in the chapter called The production of wool and its facturing. The most valuable wool is the wool from vicugna.
The penultimate section, another use of llamas, describes breeding of llamas for meat production, which is rich in proteins, as well as the use of their leather and fur, fiber (wool) and fertilizer, which does not pollute the environment and there is no danger of burning of plants. Mainly male llamas are used for transporting of loads. The llama is also an excellent animal for pulling carts. Llamas are suitable for animal therapy.
The last chapter deals with the llama as a guardian animal. Llamas are increasingly used to protect sheep, deer, cattle, goats, ducks and geese from predators.
