The Andes provides a home to the endangered chinchilla which is greatly endangered due to
its over hunting for its fur in 1940. As well as this majority of the Andes, particularly the

• Implementing a chinchilla endangerment program
• Shutting down all human access to chinchilla populated regions
• Sustainably fishing
•
