The animal market at Otavalo starts at dawn and is packed by 7AM. The most fascinating thing is watching the indigenous people quietly discussing animals like the purchase of a used car. Pros and cons are weighed. The animal is looked over by every member of the family. Meanwhile, the animals fight and scream and try to escape the inevitable.
