i think someone who had sauve kapandji (nasty surgery on wrist) done, had your blog in his/her bloglist…

(owner) Oh! I can’t believe I forgot what that meant. A surgeon wanted to do to my wrist after I broke it very badly a few years ago. Turns out he was a quack. All I needed was to have the pin he put in removed, another sign that he was a quack.

hi!
i came across your website by googling sauve kapandji…(i will not get into details about that) but i have never ever, not even in cartoons, seen anything like you! took me a while to decide if i liked you, i do! so cute, though if you came walking down the street where i live, people might be a bit scared…

That is strange that I came up under sauve kapandji. I don’t even know what that means.

I consider the Wumps to be alien capybaras, so like us but also so different. It is a very cute book. Someday I will have to write a review of it.

Just curious Caplin, do you consider “The Wump World” by Bill Peet to feature strong Capybara roles? I had never seen Cappyboppy but “The Wump World” was one of my childhood favorites and the first time I saw a capybara I thought I had found my beloved Wump! Bill Peet cites Cappybobby as a main influence for the wump character and they pretty much look like cartoon Cappys with tails. Maybe their planet got polluted, their genes were affected (so no tails) and they had to find a new home -HERE. Wumps are also very conscious of environmental conservation, something you seem to value as well. If you haven’t see it check out the earth and kid friendly awesomeness here http://www.billpeet.net/PAGES/wump.htm and http://www.powells.com/biblio/17-9780395311295-0.

About:

‘
Well, it was all my daughter Coral’s idea. When we were on a trip to Venezuela, she got to hold a young, wild capybara and she fell in love. After we got back, she pretty relentlessly pestered me about getting one for a pet. Since Coral lived in an apartment and was planning on spending a year in Asia, she couldn’t have a pet capybara herself so, she felt, it was up to me to fulfill her capybara vision.
‘
An animal is not a toy!!! That’s incredible how someone can be mentally sick enough to have a capivara at home. YOU ARE DISGUSTING!
Soon your daughter will be collecting *$%! and what are you gonna do with the poor animal? Throw it away?? Horrible example!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You disgusting frigging weirdos having this POOR animal at home, you should’ve left him where he belongs to: the forest. You are no humans, you deserve to be out of the society!
