Viscacha or vizcacha (UK: /vɪˈskætʃə/, US: /vɪˈskɑːtʃə/) are rodents of two genera (Lagidium and Lagostomus) in the family Chinchillidae. They are native to South America and look similar to rabbits due to convergent evolution, not relatedness. The five extant species of viscacha are: A southern viscacha in the Sur Lipez desert, Bolivia * Viscacha near Salar De Uyuni, 2017 * A viscacha warms itself in the morning sun in the Andes mountains in Chile.

  • الفِسْكاش هي قوارض من جنسين ( ولغستوم) من فصيلة الشنشيلات. إنهم متوطنون في أمريكا الجنوبية ويبدو أنهم متشابهون - لكن ليسوا على صلة وثيقة - مع الأرانب بسبب التطور المتقارب. (ar)
  • La viscache est un nom vernaculaire d'origine quechua, ambigu en français car il peut désigner plusieurs espèces différentes de rongeurs de taille moyenne, classés dans la famille des Chinchillidae et que l'on rencontre en Amérique du Sud, principalement dans la cordillère des Andes, du Pérou à l'Argentine. Ce sont des mammifères terrestres, proches des chinchillas. On les appelle aussi des viscaques ou des lagostomes et on ajoute aussi souvent la mention « des montagnes » ou « des plaines » pour différencier celles du genre Lagidium de celles du genre Lagostomus.

  • O termo viscacha é a designação comum aos pequenos roedores sul-americanos dos gênero Lagostomus e Lagidium, pertencentes à mesma família das chinchilas. Parecem com coelhos com o rabo grande, são muito ágeis. Pode parecer um primo distante e extravagante do coelho, mas na realidade os vizcachas estão mais relacionados com as chinchilas. Vivem no deserto do Atacama. (pt)

  • Viscacha or vizcacha (UK: /vɪˈskætʃə/, US: /vɪˈskɑːtʃə/) are rodents of two genera (Lagidium and Lagostomus) in the family Chinchillidae. They are native to South America and look similar to rabbits due to convergent evolution, not relatedness. The five extant species of viscacha are: * The plains viscacha (Lagostomus maximus), a resident of the Pampas of Argentina, is easily differentiated from other viscachas by black and gray mustache-like facial markings. This species lives colonially in warrens of 10 to over 100. It is very vocal and emits alarm calls. The plains viscacha can strip grassland used to graze livestock; this has caused ranchers to consider the rodent a pest species. * Lagidium ahuacaense is a newly described species of mountain viscacha from the Ecuadorian Andes. * The northern viscacha (Lagidium peruanum) is native to the Peruvian Andes at elevations between the tree line and the snow line. It is dorsally gray or brown in color, with a bushy tail and long, furry ears. This species lives in large colonies separated into individual family units, like an apartment complex. It eats a wide range of plant matter, settling for almost anything it can find growing in the harsh, rocky environment. * The southern viscacha (Lagidium viscacia), also called mountain viscacha, is similar to the northern viscacha, but its pelage is more red in color. It lives in similar habitat in the Andes. * Wolffsohn's viscacha (Lagidium wolffsohni) is rarer than the other four species. * A southern viscacha in the Sur Lipez desert, Bolivia * Viscacha near Salar De Uyuni, 2017 * A viscacha warms itself in the morning sun in the Andes mountains in Chile.
