Isn't it cute?! I really need to get to the Wild Animal Park and see if the capybaras are out. ^____^

I know those things are huge, but... is that for real? O_o

The capy is real. Don't know about popsicle guy. ^___~

I've seen them at the WAP; they really are that big. ^___^

Yeah, the pic looks subtly 'odd', but it sure makes a great image! ^o^

And they are supposedly gentle around humans. People keep them as pets... O.o

I'd rather have a capybara than a Potbellied Pig. ^___^

That guy better fork over that pop pretty quickly!

Yeah, I wouldn't be teasing a rodent that big! ^____^

Holy fucking Hell that this is massive! Are these things going to show up in Banshee? Damn those things are scary.

^____^ They are herbivores and "quite gentle", which is good since they can grow to almost five feet long and weigh 140 pounds. They're #1 on the anaconda's dinner menu.

I dunno if the Banshee will ever encounter them outside a zoo. They are native to South America, so I imagine both Enrique and Estaban are familiar with them, so who knows? Certainly not me! ^___^
