Mother and baby viscacha
Mother and baby viscacha
A southern viscacha (Lagidium viscacia) and her baby enjoying the early morning sun. Viscachas are often found in boulder fields as high as the snow line in the Andes. They are closely related to the chinchillas and look like a cross between a large rabbit and a squirrel, could easily win prizes for cuteness, and are wonderful to wake up to with your morning tea or coffee!
