A footnote to the article on vicuna by Dr H. Jungius in the last Oryx, May 1972, reported that Jeffery Boswall had seen numbers of vicuna in Argentina, where Dr Jungius feared they were extinct. In this article Mr Boswall describes the sightings made by his party and his reasons for thinking there may still be several hundreds, perhaps more, in Argentina.
