Animal fun fact: Chinchillas can’t get wet. Their fur retains too much water and will start to grow mold. So they bathe by rolling around in dust.

Chinchilla fun fact: Chinchillas have around 20 hairs per follicle; unlike humans who have 2-3 hairs per follicle. Because their fur is so dense, they cannot get fleas or other parasites. The bugs will suffocate in their fur.

Chinchilla fun fact: Petting one of those awesome little guys feels like touching a motherfucking cloud.

Chinchilla fun fact: They don’t just roll around in any dust. Volcanic dust is the best for them to remove grease from their fur. It’s like dry shampoo for furbabies!

Chinchilla fun fact: I want one.

Chinchilla fun fact: Because hunters/farmers only take the softest parts of their pelts, the fur in that little patch behind their necks, it takes 100-150 chinchillas to make a waist length fur coat. Consequently, they’re endangered in the wild.
