To all those people who are against Capybara pet keeping….. Dogs too were once wild, so were cats, rabbits etc. it has to start somewhere, the domestication and all, and I’d rather have this animals domesticated and a few kept as pets before they die out in the wild sadly I’m just here to keep animals alive even if they would have better lives in the wild, they’d still have a better life Alive rather than Extinct from hunting and deforestization.

this article is ridiculous lol everything you “say” the capybara felt in the story is nonsense… it thinks none of that, in the end of the day it a rodent and it attacks you cuz its nothing but a rodent just feeding and doing what it needs… keep thinking it felt bad for biting you, that thing will bite and bite and your gonna keep hitting it which is abusive imo, if your gonna have a rodent in your house that big, don’t hit it for biting you, hit yourself for being a fool

We love our family members for all their good points and bad. The connection is priceless and the learning curve can hurt. But during it all, love, caring and understanding win out.

Ok so any rodent can bite even a pet mouse can pack a nasty punch. I am trying to figure out if I should get a Patagonian cavy or a Capy. I read the pats hardly if ever bite both are one if the few exotics allowed in my state. I think a pat is the answer don’t like getting bit lol

OK, Caplin, it happens. I did the same thing when I was separated from my owner for 2 weeks. She came back to pick me up from where I was temporarily staying, and ZAP! I nailed her innocent finger which was only trying to give me a love pat. I didn’t draw blood, but who knows, I wasn’t trying for gentleness! I was just being me … but it was a different me for a moment. Sure we have “wild” instincts, but we don’t do this to the humans outside our private circle; we do it to those closest to us. I think it’s a form of irritability combined with some sort of hormonal thing. We reserve it for those we know best, thinking it’s THEM who understand us best (when in actuality, not even WE understand!). Anyway, love your page. — Joey

Hi
Why does the Roman Catholic Church categorize the capybaras as a fish even now?

It is hard to change your mind when you are always right.

I think you both handled the biting episode very well – and creatively. We all have our moods, but not necessarily the big teeth! (Approved 2010/04/25)
