Answer:
Animals That Yield Wool
Wool comes from the animals like sheep, goat, yak, camel, Liama and alpaca. The wool yielding animals have a thick coat of hair on their body to keep them warm during cold winter season. The hair (or wool) trap a lot of air. Air is a poor conductor of heat.

wool is the textile fiber obtained from sheep and other animals, including cashmere and mohair from goats, qiviut from muskoxen, hide and fur clothing from bison, angora from rabbits, and other types of wool from camelids.[1]
Wool consists of protein together with a small percentage of lipids. In this regard it is chemically quite distinct from the more dominant textile, cotton, which is mainly cellulose.[1]
