Back again, everyone’s favorite rodent, the capybara. These are the largest rodents in the world and can grow to about four and half feet long and weight 150 pounds. Females are typically larger than males, and they can have between one and seven pups. This mother was hanging out on the riverbank with her two quickly growing pups. Photographed in the Pantanal of Brazil. Nikon D300 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens with 1.4 teleconverter (at 500mm) ISO 800, f/8 at 1/1600th of a second.

Love this!
They have some resemblance in shape to the rhino. Not nearly do big or shiny skinned, but they remind me of rhinos
Rodents I will be happy to see a little mouse again after them
They didn’t seem to mind you taking photo of them
