Why not try a chinchilla? They are long lived...don't smell
and make great class pets. As far as a Spanish teacher spin

teacher but it would be cool to have kids write
stories...label the habitat...etc... maybe even discuss the
exotic animal trade as part of the cultures of some
countries just my two cents...
