Performing basic experimental procedures on chinchillas can be a challenge due to their small size, their unique characteristics, and the limited amount of information available on the techniques. Procedures such as handling, restraint, collection of samples, or administration of compounds can all be done relatively stress-free with minimal complications when performed appropriately by skilled personnel. A thorough understanding and knowledge of the experimental procedure should be obtained prior to initiation to ensure the task is carried out properly. This chapter highlights basic experimental methods in chinchillas. Chinchillas are typically quiet and shy rodents, which can be easily handled if done so in a calm, quiet, and gentle manner that uses the least amount of restraint but is still firm enough so that the handler has good control of the animal. Collection of blood from the jugular vein of chinchillas is generally well tolerated by the awake, unsedated, or unanesthetized animal. Administration of compounds or fluids in chinchillas may be done by a variety of routes including oral, intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, or intraosseous. The chinchilla is well known for its use as an animal model for auditory research and diseases of the ear.
