More Rodents?

- Start date
Czech Republic. I assume they are common throughout Europe. 248 holdings in EU and another 90 holdings in the near areas according to the zootierliste:
These are my choices
- Patagonian Mara (NT)
- Brazilian Porcupine (LC) [WE]
- Naked Mole-rat (LC) [Exhibit]
- Prevost's Squirrel (LC) [WE]
- South African Ground Squirrel (LC)
- Pacarana (LC)
- European Hamster (CR) [Exhibit]
We definitely need more rodents ! If only 4, I would choose:
Would also love to get the nutria, any species of agouti and the Cuban hutia.
I'm not opposed to the Patagonian mara and Alpine marmot but they are no priority for me.
- Northern Luzon giant cloud rat
- Gambian pouched rat
- NA porcupine
- Prevost's squirrel

Not sure if this is something we gave up on, medium sized exhibits that can have rodents or small mammals that just don’t need a habitat.
