EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1900, showcases two adorable Spotted Cavies (Cavia apera) peacefully sleeping in their enclosure at a French zoo. The Spotted Cavy, also known as the Raccoon Cavy or the Tufted Guinea Pig, is a member of the Caviidae family, which is native to South America. This family of rodents is relatively small, with only 18 species in six genera, and is found in various habitats, from moist savannas to thorn forests and scrub deserts. The two cavies in this image are nestled together, wrapped in a cozy cape, which may have been provided by their keepers to keep them warm. The Spotted Cavy is a popular pet and is the closest living relative to the domestic guinea pig. However, unlike their domesticated counterparts, these wild cavies have a more robust build and distinctive spotted fur. This photograph is a charming reminder of the rich biodiversity of the animal kingdom and the role that zoos played in the past in allowing people to observe and learn about exotic animals from around the world. The Old and New French Zoo, where this photograph was taken, was a popular destination for visitors seeking to explore the wonders of the natural world. Today, we continue to appreciate the beauty and uniqueness of animals like the Spotted Cavy, and we strive to protect and conserve their habitats in the wild.
