| description | The Indians of the South make abundant use of leather. In primitive times, the guanaro, the fox, the skunk, the puma, the hare, the huemul, the ostrich and perhaps the otter were the main suppliers of the rustic indigenous industry, and later the cow, the horse, the sheep and the goat. The skins of these imported animals have acquired visible preponderance and together with those of guanaco, fox and skunk, in frank decline, are the most used today. The puma and the almost extinct huemul have ceased to be victims of the aboriginal's needs, and the same happens with the hare (Dolichotis patagónica), whose skins, once turned into quillangos, were painted with exclusive designs. The other hare, called "European" in Patagonia to distinguish it from the native one, invaded those lands very recently. In Chubut, where the first ones began to be seen in 1920, it is now an indestructible plague, and the poor Indians take advantage of its meat, without industrializing the skin, which they sell for a few cents or a few grams of yerba mate, sugar or flour. |

Los indios del Sur usan abundantemente el cuero. En tiempos primitivos fueron principales proveedores de la rústica industria indígena, el guanaro, el zorro, el zorrino, el puma, la liebre, el huemul, el avestruz y tal vez la nutria, nómina que más tarde integran la vaca, el caballo, la oveja y la cabra. Los pellejos de estos animales importados han adquirido preponderancia visible y junto con los de guanaco, zorro y zorrino, en franca declinación, son los más usados en el día. El puma y el casi extinguido huemul han dejado de ser víctimas de las necesidades del aborigen, y sucede lo propio con la liebre (Dolichotis patagónica), cuyas pieles una vez convertidas en quillangos se pintaban con diseños exclusivos. La otra liebre, denominada "europea" en la Patagonia para distinguirla de la autóctona, invadió aquellas tierras hace muy poco. En Chubut, donde empezaron a verse las primeras en 1920, constituye ahora plaga indestructible, y de su carne aprovecha el indio paupérrimo, sin industrializar la piel que enajena por pocos centavos o unos gramos de yerba, azúcar o harina.
