About Chinchillas

Our Chinchilla (Chinchilla lanigera) is the common long-tailed chinchilla. It is the size of a small rabbit, crepuscular, and is found in the Andes of South America. Its name, chinchilla, comes from the name of a tribe of Andean people, the Chincha, who adorned themselves with furs from this rodent. In their native habitat, chinchillas live in burrows or crevices in rocks. They are agile jumpers and can leap up to five feet. Predators in the wild include hawks, skunks, felines, and canines. Chinchillas have a variety of defense tactics including spraying urine and releasing fur if bitten. In the wild, chinchillas have been observed eating plants, fruits, seeds, and small insects. Chinchillas were brought to the United States in the 1920s and were domesticated and sold in pet stores. There are several chinchilla owner pet clubs and lots of information on how to care for a domesticated pet chinchilla. The native Chilean chinchillas have been hunted for human apparel since the early 1900s. Around 1900, an estimated 500,000 chinchilla skins were exported annually from Chile. Chinchilla pelt is considered by some to be the most valuable pelt in the world, and coats have sold as much as $100,000. This scale of hunting seriously depleted the number of wild chinchillas, and the international trade in wild chinchillas or their skins is now restricted by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES).

Stuffed plush chinchilla

One of our most popular stuffed animals this year has been this adorable lifelike chinchilla. Made by Hansa, it has all of the realistic details you expect from this maker of high-quality stuffed animal toys. Collectors and kids alike love Hansa animals. In our showroom, we've learned that both children and adults are attracted to the realism and character built into every one of Hansa's hand-made stuffed animals. They are designed based on real living specimens, and for that reason each has the character and features of a living animal. They're made in small quantities. The fur and is designed and dyed just for each animal type, and several unique styles of fur are put together to make each animal. For instance, the tail fur of this chinchilla is long and is designed and made separately from the fur of the feet, which is short. Finally, hand stitching and a bit of color are added to complete each lovable animal character.
