About Chinchilla
Chinchillas are rodents that are slightly bigger than a ground squirrel and native to the Andes Mountains in South America. Thanks to their dense and velvety fur, people have been using chinchillas for fur since the 16th century and are illegal to hunt. A chinchilla’s gestation period is 111 days. The long gestation period results in the birth of fully haired newborn chinchillas with eyes fully open. The typical litter is small, usually twins. The average lifespan for a chinchilla is 15 years.
