Cururo

/kuːˈruːroʊ/ noun

Definition

A small burrowing rodent found in the Andes Mountains of South America, similar to a guinea pig.

Etymology

From Mapuche or other southern South American indigenous languages. The animal's name reflects indigenous classification systems for local fauna.

Kelly Says

The cururo is almost unknown outside South America—it's this adorable little underground creature that indigenous Andean peoples knew intimately, but most of the world has never heard of it!
