Patagonian Mara Calling Sound
The Patagonian mara (Dolichotis patagonum) is a relatively large rodent belonging to the mara genus Dolichotis. Commonly referred to as the Patagonian cavy or Patagonian hare, this herbivorous animal bears a resemblance to rabbits and inhabits open and semi-open areas in Argentina, particularly across much of Patagonia. There is also a recorded population in the northern United Arab Emirates, likely due to escaped pets or captive animals. Patagonian maras are monogamous and often nest in communal warrens shared by multiple pairs.
These animals are exclusive to Argentina, ranging from 28° to 50°S. They favor habitats with shrub cover but can also be found in overgrazed and barren soils within the Monte Desert biome. In northwestern Argentina, they mostly occupy lowland areas such as forests and creosote bush regions. On the Valdes Peninsula, maras prefer sandy and low shrub environments. Adapted to a cursorial lifestyle on the open plains and steppe, they possess long legs, a reduced clavicle, and highly developed sensory organs, enabling them to run efficiently and communicate in these open habitats. Their running style is often likened to that of deer and antelope. Patagonian maras primarily consume green vegetation and fruit, with their diet in the Monte Desert comprising 70% monocots and 30% dicots. Preferred grasses include species from the genera Chloris, Pappophorum, and Trichloris, while they also consume dicots such as Atriplex lampa, Lycium spp., and Prosopis spp.
