Found on the islands of the West Indies, this critter faces many threats, including persecution as a pest, predation by invasive species, habitat loss, and being hunted by humans as a food source. One of only two remaining endemic land mammals on the island of Hispaniola, conservationists are racing the clock to learn as much as they can about the hutia in order to develop strategies to save this unique species from extinction.
