MISSOULA — When you think of rodents, what comes to mind? Probably not this week’s featured animal from ZooMontana.
The chinchilla is from the rodent family and is native to the Andes Mountains of South America.
Chinchillas are now listed as endangered. They have been hunted because of their soft fur.
Check out the video above to learn about the chinchilla insect.
