What is a chinchilla? A chinchilla is a small rodent native to the Andes mountains. They have extremely soft fur and a bushy tail (like that of a squirrel). Chinchillas are known for their long life span; usually ranging from 10 to 20 years. They must be kept in a temperature under 75 degrees Fahrenheit, or risk brain damage. Chinchillas are very social and need constant entertainment. They are good pets for older children and adults because hey require lots of care, attention and time. Although they can be a lot of work, they make some of the best pets!! :)
