Mara Dolichotis patagonum

This herbivorous mammal lives in grasslands and is a member of the Caviomorpha.
Its body shape resembles that of a rabbit, but its facial features and legs are different.
The hind legs are longer than the front legs, making it well-suited for fast running.
They usually live in pairs and may also move about with their offspring or in small groups.
Active during the day, they spend their time quietly eating grass and leaves.
