-Capybaras are the largest rodents in the world.
-Their name means "master of the grasses" and are also known as "water pigs."
-They can stay submerged for up to five minutes in the water, and if needed, can even sleep in the water.
-Capybaras are sometimes kept as pets in the U.S. and Canada, but this is rare because they are very expensive.
-Their meat is considered a delicacy.
-An adult capybara will eat 6-8 pounds of grasses per day.
