behavior of pacas

With essentially solitary habits, they hardly interact even with individuals of the same species. In fact, during the day, they are barely seen, since during this period they retire to their burrows (which are generally 2 meters deep). It's when night falls that life speeds up. First they explore the surroundings for fallen fruit. Their long “whiskers”, called vibrissae, serve as sensors to locate food.

Your hearing and smell are well developed, but your eyesight is poor. They prefer environments close to streams, as this way, at the least danger (medium and large carnivores and, of course, hunters), they throw themselves into the water (since they are good swimmers). But they are not always lucky.
