Wool is obtained from sheep, but the name hair fiber is used to indicate fiber obtained from animals other than sheep.
The animals from which hair fiber is gathered include angora goats (from which we get mohair), cashmere goats (cashmere), angora rabbit (angora), alpaca, camel, and vicuña. More recently the ancient Tibetan craft of spinning yarn from yak fiber (khullu) has become globally known.
