Agoutis are small, furry animals that look a bit like big guinea pigs. They love to eat fruits, nuts, and seeds and are often found in the forests of Central and South America.
生息地: Forests
The Agoutis has a slender body with a large head, short ears, and long, thin legs. Its coarse fur is typically reddish-brown to orange, often brighter on its rump, and nearly tailless with only a small stub visible. This makes it look like a large, long-legged guinea pig.
