Alpacas join in charity event in Germany

Carol singers walk with an alpaca on December 29, 2018 through the city center of Stuttgart, southern Germany, to attend the main opening ceremony of this season's Carol Singers charity event. The 2019 slogan is "Bring blessing, be blessing - We belong together - in Peru and worldwide." Traditionally, children dress up as the Three Kings and go from house to house after Christmas and before Epiphany to collect money for aid projects aiming to support children in need.
