Chinchila world

Hi pumared, it's nice to come across this topic I have great interest once at sight at the word "chinchila" though this is the first time I learn this word. I like to learn new thing visiting wikipedia. Yeah, I have got the image as well as the detailed description of the adorable little creature with the name of chinchila. Oh yeah, it's said that chinchila means little chincha. From the images available there I can chinchila looks a bit like mouse. I looks more like a little rabbit if without the whiskers But it's sad to know that great amount of this lovely animals were killed due to the hunting of their valuable velvet-like fur. Lol...I would like to keep one as pet if I could find any in the local pet shops here. Really it's fun to watch the small pet with big bright eyes having fun during our leisure time. Happy posting
