Create My Logo Contest!

Owner’s blog:

Entry #1: Sue Rost

Hi all! I am in need of a logo for the ROUS Foundation for Capybara Veterinary Medicine. As some of you may know, the Foundation was started after Caplin Rous died unexpectedly on January 4th, 2011, a day that will burn forever in my heart.

After Caplin’s death I wanted to do something to try to prevent such tragedies from happening again. The first step toward that is knowledge and it turns out there is surprisingly little knowledge about capybara veterinary care, diseases and environmental susceptibilities. I started the ROUS Foundation in conjunction with Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine to develop a knowledge center of capybara. It has taken a while to get things going but soon everything should be in place.

However, as everyone knows, we can’t have a Foundation without a logo! That’s where you come in. Create your own version of a ROUS Foundation logo and email it me using the “contact” tab at the top of this page. I will put all the entries that I receive before June 4th up here and then open voting to the public. Get your creative hats on!

  • There will be three prizes
    • 1st place winner will select his/her prize
    • 2nd winner will select his/her prize
    • 3rd place winner selects from remaining prizes

      • A Caplin Rous ceramic pawprint
      • A Caplin Rous mug
  • You must relinquish all creative rights to the logo image
    • You may use any of my drawings or photos in your logo
    • Do not use anyone else’s copyrighted material

Curious About Capybaras?

View All
Do you breed and/or sale capybaras?

No. If you contact me with a polite email, I may be able to put you in contact with a breeder. Please review my blog carefully and make sure you have the time, the means and the patience to deal with a capybara.

How much does it cost to get/keep a pet capybara?

A lot! We are very demanding animals. You can read my blog post How Much Is That Capy in the Window for detailed information.

Do capybaras bite?

Yes. And no. Depends on the circumstances and the capybara. Please read this related blog post: Capybara Agression

 Do you dream?

Yes! All animals dream. Here’s a link to a video of Caplin Rous dreaming.
