Chinchillas are crepuscular rodents, slighty larger and more robust than ground squirrels.They are native to the Andes mountains in South America and live in colonies called "herds".
There are 2 species of chinchillas: the Lanigera chinchilla and the brevicaudata chinchilla .
They are hervibore and in wild, chinchillas eat plant leaves, fruits seeds and small insects.
Thought it is illegal to hunt wild chinchillas, these wild animals are more and more common.
I insert my favourite photo because this animal is my pet and I have it for a pouf time.We love him and he loves us.
