Curious Facts about the Capybara

You may not know its name, but you’ve probably seen photos of it soaking in hot springs on social media. This “giant hamster,” or capybara, is a favorite among zoogoers and animal experts alike. Here are some amusing facts about these charming creatures.

They are big.
As the world’s largest rodent, adult capybaras weigh around 50 kg. That’s as heavy as some humans! They average about 1.2 m in length and are up to 60 cm tall. Despite their size, they are fast runners that can reach speeds of up to 35 km an hour.

They love the water.
Capybaras spend a lot of time in water. Their webbed toes help them move quickly through the water, and they can also stay underwater for up to five minutes at a time to avoid predators. Capybaras have even been known to sleep in the water to prevent getting sunburned.

They’re highly social animals.
Capybaras generally live in groups of between 10 and 20. Moreover, capybaras enjoy making friends with other animal species . . . and sometimes the capybaras’ new friends use them as furniture! It’s not uncommon to see monkeys, rabbits, birds, and even other capybaras resting on a capybara’s back while it eats.

 
「療癒系天王」水豚君

你也許不知道牠的名字,但你很可能在社群媒體上看過牠泡溫泉的照片。這隻「巨大倉鼠」,或者說水豚,是常去動物園的人和動物專家的最愛。這裡有一些關於這些可愛的動物有趣的事實。

牠們體型龐大。
身為世界上最大的齧齒動物,成年水豚體重大約五十公斤。那和一些人類一樣重!牠們平均身長大約一點二公尺,高達六十公分。儘管身軀龐大,但牠們跑得很快,時速可高達三十五公里。

牠們很喜歡水。
水豚花很多時間在水裡。牠們有蹼的腳趾有助於牠們在水中快速移動,而且可以一次在水下停留長達五分鐘以避開掠食者。甚至已知水豚會在水中睡覺以防止曬傷。

牠們是群居動物。
水豚普遍以十到二十隻成群生活。此外,水豚喜歡和其他動物物種交朋友……而且有時候水豚的新朋友會把牠們當作家具使用!猴子、兔子、鳥甚至其他水豚在牠吃東西時躺在牠背上休息並不稀奇。
