This adorable capybara named Rousabelle or Rousey for short (pronounced Rosy) was accidently let out of her yard by a delivery person. She is from Colliers, WV. If you live in the area, please keep an eye out for her or for any rumor that sounds like a capybara sighting. Rousey is tame but she may be frightened.
Please send call the number listed or me an email immediately if you have any information! caplinrous@gmail.com.

Sent an email to her owner asking for a new number. Do you have any news?
I saw this animal today on the panhandle trail between mile markers 1&2.
Hi everyone my name is Debbie Hobbs and I’m Rousy’s mom. My new phone #412 527 8268. Thanks to all for info. JACKIE I have been walking Harmon Creek right near where you saw her since a man saw her crossing the street between the the recycle plant and the storage place along the creek. I put a poster on the bench between mile marker 1 and 2 tonight after Melanie emailed me about your siting. Its great to know that she is still there.
Is it possible the capy could be in Tidewater, VA? Someone I know thought they saw one swimming near Deltaville last week (8/11/13).
Thanks for your comment! We think she is still in the area around where she was lost. There has been a recent siting.
I’m glad to say that Rousy was found at my house this morning, and was caught and taken back to her owner. I got to pet her before they took her and she is very sweet. I’m glad she’s found her way home.
I saw one Thursday night on route 340 between Berryville and White Post Virginia.
