What's a viscacha?


Search
: viscacha; jvm's spirit animal

Why: I am in a Reddit hole. This picture is labeled: "I really think think a viscacha would make a killer real-life side kick."
It looks like a sagacious bunny.

Answer: It's a kind of rodent!
Any of four species of slender yet fairly large South American rodents similar to chinchillas. They have short forelimbs, long hindlimbs, and a long, bushy tail. The soft fur is long and dense, and the soles of the feet have fleshy pads.
They look sleepy.

The More You Know: Three of the species live in the Andes, where it's v. cold. They eat seeds and grass, and are therefore a pest to farmers. I want to cuddle one so bad.
