Chile is well known
for his variety in flora and fauna, but today I’m going to talk about the different
kind of animals that make up the native fauna of Chile. In the north we have an
extreme kind of climate, but that it’s not an obstacle to the formation of native
fauna, we have Big animals like Llamas, Vicuñas and Guanacos, also little
animals like the Chinchilla and Vizcacha a little kind of rabbit. In the center
of the country the variety of animals it’s higher with different species of “big
cats” as the Colocolo, the Guiña and the puma; also we can find a characteristic
fox of the center zone of Chile, the Zorro Culpeo. When we get closer to the
south we can see that the variety of native fauna increases with a lot kind of
animals like rodents as the Coipo or the Degu; also we have some species like
the Pudú and the Huemul. Other important family of native fauna of Chile’re the
Marsupials, composed with only 4 especies, wich are threatened: The “Llaca”,
the “Comadrejita de vientre blanco” , the “Monito del monte” and the “Comadrejita
trompuda”.
