Santrauka:
Šinšila – simpatiškas bei malonus žvėrelis. Nėra stambus, iš išvaizdos šiek tiek panašus į voverę ar nedidelį triušį. Šinšilų tėvyne laikomi Andų kalnai, Pietų Amerikoje. Šioje šalyje kiekvienais metais buvo eksportuojama apie 500 tūkstančius kailiukų. Šinšilos, gyvendamos nelaisvėje, negali pačios susirasti pašaro, tad augindamas šinšilas žmogus prisiima visą atsakomybę už šiuos žvėrelius. Valstybės maisto ir veterinarijos tarnybos duomenimis, šiuo metu Lietuvoje yra įregistruota 28 šinšilų įmonių ar ūkių užsiimančių šinšilų auginimu.
