The primary language of Argentina is Spanish. This language has been heavily influenced by immigrants, including Italian French settlers. English is quickly growing to become the second language, particularly in the metro areas of the country.

The short-tailed chinchilla is the most endangered animal in Argentina. It may already be extinct in the wild. Slightly larger than guinea pigs, they are famed for their soft hair, and millions were killed in the 19th and early 20th centuries to make fur coats.
