Popis: An alpaca presented in lateral recumbency and subsequently died. On necropsy examination the liver showed severe, widespread, periacinar hepatocellular necrosis, staining positive to a rhodamine stain for copper. Hepatic copper concentration was elevated. Copper toxicity in the camelid is difficult to diagnose, since the classical hemolytic crisis is not observed.
