Here’s a shout-out to my cousins at the Moscow Zoo! My friend Alex went there with Lina last weekend and took these photos. Notice that Lina has a stuffed capybara toy! Isn’t that cute? And look how great my cousins look. (Although I have to say I am glad I do not live in such a cold climate.)

Great shot, Alex! My cous looks so dignified!

Alex & Lina & the toy capybara watching the real capybaras at the Moscow Zoo.

I'm pretty sure the stuffed capybara does not approve of Lina's food choice.
What’s so wrong with a good ol’ hot dog! 🙂
Yes, all the carpinchos (a.k.a. capybaras) are the very dignified and noble animals. And with a mystery behid their eyes, like ancient spynx.
Hey look she has the same capybara stuffed animal I have! My boyfriend had to order him all the way from Europe to get him, he’s an import too. Wish they made them here too.
Oh my…I didn’t know you existed! I saw you on B5 of the Statesman, and I must say, you are so cute! So, what’s it like, living as a pet? Do you sleep outdoors, indoors, or what?
[…] may remember Carpincho from my post about capybaras at Moscow zoo. You can imagine how surprised I was to see Carpincho. That toy capybara is a serious world […]
