Almost a century ago, Chapman Chinchilla drafted what is perhaps the first research study of the domestic chinchilla. This historic account will be published in four parts during the winter of 2024-2025.

"Because the laboratory has devoted itself to the chinchilla industry as a whole in its efforts to promote research on the chinchilla it is believed that information obtained through its efforts should be made available to all breeders. With this purpose in mind, it is hoped that the following information will be of value to breeders everywhere and to the industry to which we are devoted." -Chapman
