Central American agouti

The Central American agouti (''Dasyprocta punctata'') is a species of agouti from the family Dasyproctidae. The main portion of its range is from Chiapas and the Yucatan Peninsula (southern Mexico), through Central America, to northwestern Ecuador, Colombia and far western Venezuela. A highly disjunct population is found in southeastern Peru, far southwestern Brazil, Bolivia, western Paraguay and far northwestern Argentina. The disjunct population has been treated as a separate species, the brown agouti (''Dasyprocta variegata''),〔Emmons, L. H. (1997). ''Neotropical Rainforest Mammals.'' Pp. 227-229. 2nd edition. ISBN 0-226-20721-8〕 but a major review of the geographic variation is necessary.〔 The Central American agouti has also been introduced to Cuba, Bahamas, Jamaica, Hispaniola and the Cayman Islands.〔 Long, J. L. (2003). Introduced Mammals of the World: Their History, Distribution and Influence. Csiro Publishing, Collingwood, Australia. ISBN 9780643099166〕〔
Though some populations are reduced due to hunting and deforestation, large populations remain〔 and it is not considered threatened.〔
==Appearance==

Central American agoutis from the main part of their range weigh and are typically reddish, orange or yellowish grizzled with black.〔〔Reid, F. A. (1997). ''Mammals of Central America and Southeast Mexico.'' Pp. 243-244. ISBN 0-19-506400-3〕 In northern Colombia, western Venezuela, and on the Atlantic slope of Costa Rica and Panama the foreparts are brownish or blackish grizzled with tawny or olivaceous, the mid-body is orange, and the rump is black or cream.〔〔 In western Colombia and Ecuador some have tawny foreparts and yellowish to the rump.〔 Agoutis from the disjunct southern population (Peru, Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay and Argentina) which sometimes are treated as a separate species, ''Dasyprocta variegata'', weigh and are grizzled brown, yellowish and black, or grizzled black and orange.〔
