Chinchilla, an English name, belongs to the family Chinchilla of the suborder porcupine. Because it resembled the manga Totoro in the film My Neighbor Totoro created by Japanese cartoonist Miyazaki Hayao, it was later renamed as Totoro by Hong Kong people. Totoro, which originated in the Andes of South America, is a kind of rodent that existed in prehistoric times. Shortly after the Spanish occupied the American continent, my neighbor totoro was regarded as a treasure internationally because of its luxurious and soft fur. Before that, chinchillas thrived in the dry and steep Andes in Chile, Peru, Bolivia and Argentina. The name of my neighbor totoro comes from the local Indian Chinchas. These Indians use chinchillas as food and clothes. In the15th century, an Indian race named Chincha caught these small animals as food and made beds out of their fur. They also wear robes woven with chinchilla fur. (The Spanish named this small animal Totoro after the Chinchas family. Later, Chincha was conquered by the Inca Empire, and the Inca Empire was strong for some time. According to the laws of the Inca Empire, Chincha people were forbidden to wear robes made of chinchilla fur. They immediately became the exclusive furs of the Inca royal family, and only Inca nobles were allowed to wear them. /kloc-In the 6th century, Spanish conquerors sought noble sacrifices for their queen, and the Incas were conquered by the Spanish in turn. Legend has it that a special envoy wanted to please the queen and gave her a big box full of jewels and gold products. He wrapped the box in a chinchilla robe stolen from the Inca chief. However, the emissary he sent stole the jewels, presented only the box containing the fur robe of my neighbor totoro, and then ran away. The queen was overjoyed by such exquisite and noble fur. The thief was found and brought back to court, and was pardoned for torture and death. Instead, he was knighted for this rare and exquisite fur, because the queen had never seen more beautiful and luxurious fur than my neighbor totoro before. Since then, my neighbor totoro has been known to the civilized world, and countless Spanish women are looking for the same fur as their queen. It is so soft, light, delicate, elegant and shiny that people can't put it down, and they feel lucky to see my neighbor totoro. As a result, the Spaniards in South America are as keen on my neighbor totoro as they are on gold and precious stones. The news that there are such rare and lovely furs in the world spread quickly in Europe. Historically, gold diggers invited Britons who loved hunting and other wild sports to the Andes, because red foxes began to flood in the natural habitat of chinchillas. Every weekend, the British hunt foxes, but foxes hunt chinchillas every day. Due to the demand for fur and the killing of foxes, the number of chinchillas has gradually decreased and is on the verge of extinction. 19 18 the governments of Chile, Peru and Bolivia have enacted laws to protect fur exports. However, it is impossible to save the endangered fate of my neighbor totoro. In the same year, Mathias F. Chapman, an American mining engineer, came across the valuable value of my neighbor totoro in Chile. A local Indian migrant worker brought this precious animal to a mining camp. Mathias F. Chapman realized the valuable value of chinchillas and was shocked by their tragic fate, so he considered catching some and bringing them back to the United States for breeding to save this species. His partners thought that My Neighbor Totoro was actually extinct, and all previous efforts of artificial breeding failed, so when he submitted a plan to save My Neighbor Totoro to his partners, they thought he must be crazy. Even so, he began to gather some Indian migrant workers and promised them a lot of gold to buy every live chinchilla. Four years later, some of these precious animals were collected in the Andes where 23 Indian tribes lived. * * * Male 8, female 3, 1 1. They were allowed to take back to America. Chapman spent several months transporting them from the plateau at an altitude of 10000 feet to the port gradually, so as to adapt them to the changes of environment, altitude, temperature and humidity. Along the way, ice was used to lower the room temperature, and they were fed local food. 1923 In February, he finally transported my chinchillas to San Pedro Port, California, where they successfully bred and saved them from extinction. From the beginning of 1923 1 1 my neighbor totoro, my neighbor totoro industry developed slowly. At 1950, the artificially bred chinchillas sold for several thousand dollars per pair (equivalent to tens of thousands of dollars now). In this market exploration process, anyone with vision can see the broad prospects of the totoro industry. These people found a huge potential market for chinchilla fur. They set up an organization to create a chinchilla fur market. At present, it is estimated that there are about one million chinchillas in the world. The United States has the largest number of chinchillas, followed by Canada, Argentina, Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark, Chile, Uruguay and other countries.
