Friendly, but Deadly

While the capybara enjoys a reputation as one of the most agreeable creatures, it is nonetheless a wild animal and not to be trifled with. Many capybara are skilled in various forms of martial arts.

I’m keeping a safe distance, Andrew Y.

    I love the Instagram comment “Is there anything they can’t do?”

        It’s Kristin Chenoweth in Hairspray Live! (2016).

      Honestly, having this as an olympic sport makes more sense to me than hammer throwing. I have no idea how that became a thing, and I don’t think I want to know.

        Well too bad, lol, here’s what wikipedia says:
        “According to legend, at the Tailteann Games in Tara, Ireland, as far back as 2000 BC the Celtic warrior Culchulainn took a chariot axle with a wheel still attached and spun it around and hurled it.[2] The wheel was later replaced by a rock with a wooden handle attached.[2] A sledgehammer began to be used for the sport in Scotland and England during the Middle Ages.[2] “

    That’s pretty dang funny. And the comments too! I still want to know the back story of why??? It almost looks like he’s about to eat the twig but then decides not to, guess he’s having too much fun.

      Who has a bathroom with steps down into it and at least two clawfoot tubs, one with a capybara in it? That’s what I want to know.

      Oh, and how do I get in on that action?
