About the Capybara:

The capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) is the largest living rodent on Earth, native to South America's wetlands, rivers, and marshes. Known for their remarkably calm temperament and social nature, capybaras are often spotted lounging in groups alongside other animals — from birds to monkeys to even crocodilians. Their semi-aquatic lifestyle, expressive faces, and gentle demeanor have made them a global symbol of relaxation and peaceful coexistence. Learn more about these fascinating creatures on Wikipedia and through the Smithsonian's National Zoo.
