Chinchilla

Chinchillas are a type of rodent which is native to the Andes in South America. The Chincha people used to wear the fur of the Chinchillas and they became very rare in the 19th century due to being hunted for their fur. These days chinchillas are raised in farms to provide fur for clothing and other accessories.
