The cavy-like rodent of the Caribbean islands is called a "Cuy" or "Guinea pig." These small, social animals are native to the Andes but are also found in various Caribbean islands due to domestication. They are known for their distinctive squeaks and have been kept as pets and for food purposes in some cultures. Additionally, the term "cavy" generally refers to the family Caviidae, which includes guinea pigs and related species.
