Good Morning Agouti
I sat down this morning to enjoy a coffee outside and this little agouti started slowly creeping toward me until he was only a few feet away. Usually the agoutis here in Panama are very shy, thus I really was not able to move without scaring him off so the photos are not the best.
Interesting animal! Are they rodents?
Yep. But the term rodent I think evokes the idea of them being pests. They are not really unless you have a garden. Behaviorwise they remind me of rabbits.
Ah neat! They are very unique.
They do kinda look like a short-earred rabbit. Haha
Very nice pictures!
Thanks @richq11
Aww, look at this little guy!
They are pretty cute...
And delicious so I have been told.
