I wonder if a llama would scare off more predators too.

I worked on a llama farm once (as a carpenter). I thought they were rather 
dour and tempermental. I was always leery of approaching one like you would a 
horse because they spit at you when alarmed or pissed off. .  How about a 
burro? I ran into a couple using one in the Olympics. It seemed pretty docile 
and agreeable.
