Meaning
Pacas.
Classification
Nouns denoting animals.
Examples
- The paca's underground tunnel system often contains a complex network of cuniculi that provide protection from predators.
- In paca burrows, individual entrances may connect to separate cuniculi which in turn join larger tunnel networks.
- By digging an extensive network of cuniculi, pacas can maintain stable temperatures deep beneath the surface.
- Each paca often occupies a unique cuniculus within the communal burrow, sometimes used as a retreat during periods of high stress.
- When exploring a particular area, pacas tend to follow established pathways of cuniculi created by past generations.
