The plains viscacha or plains vizcacha (Lagostomus maximus)
They are monogenetic members of the family Chinchillidae and live communally within burrows they construct. The females ovulate over 200 eggs per cycle, while the human female ovulates only one per cycle. Because of that, they're not endangered, but due to their shyness, most are not seen in their natural habitat. Fascinating little creatures!!!
