A large rodent from South America that resembles a chinchilla and lives in burrows in the mountains and grasslands.
From Spanish viscacha, derived from a Quechua word (Indigenous language of the Andes). The spelling 'bizcacha' is an alternative spelling that reflects different transliterations from the original Indigenous word.
The viscacha is like nature's engineer—it digs massive warrens with multiple entrances and rooms, and Indigenous peoples have known about and hunted these creatures for thousands of years!
