Laura,
I'm so sorry for your loss and that you had to come to this conclusion. I know you didn't take the matter lightly. You may see this behavior again in raising your alpacas in the future and please know that with a little time and patience it can be fixed. Unfortunately, you did not have that option and chose the best scenario for the safety of your family. If you ever have a young male "bump" you from behind, please remember this male and bop him one before he has a chance to get this bad. It is really horrifying to me that a breeder would have the nerve to sell an animal like this - I just do not believe he just picked up this behavior at your place and never exhibited it with them. I think you should go after them for his purchase price, especially since your vet witnessed the behavior. My sympathy goes out to you and your family - hang in there and enjoy playing with the other alpacas that were in with him that are now having a much more peaceful life.
