¿Quién soy?
I am a rodent of diurnal activity. I like to live alone or in couples with my young. My coat is gray with whitish and reddish hues, while my tail and legs are black. My senses of hearing and smell are highly developed, which allows me to be constantly alert to any danger. I have an important role in the Amazon ecosystem as a seed disperser.

My diet consists of fruits, plants, and various succulents.
¿Dónde vivo?
I like to live in forests, bushes, savannas, and crops. You can find me in Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Brazil.

Preparation for the babies' arrival.
The females of my species prepare the nest with feathers, plants, mosses, and their hair. They are very protective of their young and can be quite aggressive in case of any threat.
