They mostly live in colder climates for which they are well adapted because of their dense fur. They are critically endangered. Chinchillas have a variety of defensive tactics including spraying urine and releasing fur if bitten. They mostly feed upon vegetation. In nature, chinchillas live in social groups that resemble colonies but are properly called herds. Chinchillas can breed any time of the year. Due to this long pregnancy, chinchillas are born fully furred and with eyes open. Litters are usually small in number, predominately twins. Chinchilla's extremely soft fur is being used in fur industry. Communicating Yelling. Barking Smiling. Winking. Biting. Jumping. Bouncing off walls (wall surfing). Wagging the tail. Shaking the head.

found in Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Turkey, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Caucasus, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan until it apparently became extinct in the 1970s. Of all the tigers known to the world, the Caspian tiger was the third largest. The body of this subspecies was quite stocky with strong legs, big wide paws and unusually large claws. The ears were short and small. Around the cheeks the Caspian tiger was generously furred and the rest of its fur was long and thick. The colouration resembled that of the Bengal tiger. It assumebly became extinct in 1970. *CAVE LION: The cave lion, also known as the European or Eurasian cave lion, is an extinct subspecies of lion known from fossils and a wide variety of prehistoric art. This subspecies was one of the largest lions. An adult male, which was found in 1985 near Siegsdorf (Germany), had a shoulder height of around 1.2 m and a length of 2
Dilute Result: D/D - Full (Dense) color. Cat does not have the dilute allele. Milkdud's skin was closer to a fawn colour and his eyes had yellow irides with red pupils. There is no genetic test for pink-eyed dilution. Photos exist of the original pink-eyed dilutes hairs under high magnification, so that is one route to investigate (the Don Sphynx has slight furring on the tail). The other is to breed furred cats with the same colour and eye colout and to analyse their fur. While the genetic basis isn't yet known, visually Milkdud appears to be a pink-eyed dilute and hence a new opportunity for the cat fancy. Anna Kholmska, in Ukraine, has bred 4 generations of these cats (over 7 years) to establish a breeding line. All have been healthy. The unidentified colour is known in discussion (during 2015) as "Ukraine chocolate." From the visual appearance, it closely resembles the
