The Goofiest Rodent
It’s also the biggest. The capybara is a peculiar beast.
“If threatened, it’s usual response is to flee into the water, where it dives staying submerged for several minutes.” – Guia de Fauna Selvestre, Selva & Pampas
We clearly weren’t very threatening.
i can’t really tell how big these guys are. try to postion bode next to one and take another pic. actually, i don’t really know how big bide is thsee days so place ANGELA next to the capybara and take a pic for me. THANKS!
medium pig-sized, but cuter (for a rodent anyway). Or, imagine a Labrador that’s more like a rat.
Buster is not that fat!!! Maybe he is, but he’s cuter.
For those who give up meat for Lent or on Friday’s, the capybara is considered fish.
OK, ROUSes of Monty Python fame is coming to mind here.
