Chacoan Peccary
The Chacoan peccary was initially described as an extinct species from fossils discovered in 1930. In the early 1970s, a living population was found in an isolated area of Paraguay — in a region known as the Gran Chaco. This species is the largest and rarest of the three living peccaries.
