    When people visit Machu Picchu in Peru, they often see small animals that resemble squirrels or rabbits around the ruins. While often confused as chinchillas, these animals are actually viscachas, a relative of the chinchilla and a member of the
    Chinchillidae
    family. Viscachas are closely related to chinchillas but are slightly larger and more resemble rabbits with long squirrel tails. The Northern Viscacha, which is native to the Peruvian Andes, is usually a grey or brown color with a bushy tail and long, furry ears. They are also known for their very soft fur, but are not as soft as their relatives. Like chinchillas, they live in large colonies and prefer harsh, rocky environments at high altitudes.
    It’s an authentic old 140 YEAR OLD print
    and
    NOT A REPRODUCTION.
    Your item will be shipped flat & securely protected against damage,
