- The title is, of course, a come on!
Banksy has been trained using the clicker (operant conditioning) method. The frequent rewarding seen on the video would not be necessary in "normal" circumstances, (and indeed would be a sign of weak/insecure training) but I was working under stressful conditions, namely with a cameraman present!
Banksy is a suri alpaca. I do not know how he compares, in trainability, to other suris as I know of no other person eccentric enough to be doing it. But he is certainly very trainable ... if needing a great deal of repetition compared to llamas. Having said that, he is much less easily distracted (except by the camera) than llamas and would love to be trained all day.
I disagree with the video title. I trained an alpaca to behave like an alpaca. It was a great success!
Totally inspiring.
Cute and awesome
Untrainable? Seems to be well trained.
Amazing!!
It works very good
This is wonderful at what age do you start training them
It does the acts simply bcos of the treats. Humans wud do the same if they're caged or confined for the rest of their lives. And its all juz for a show
Untrainable? 😐
Hello! Great video! Do you have a contact email? I'd like to request permission to use this wonderful video in an online course. :D
Hello,
I've tried, unsuccessfully, to send you an e-mail, but you certainly have my permission to use any of my videos for your online course.
Do you have a means of telling me you have received this?!
