Looks like he’s trying to entice the dog to play.

Capybara discovers he’s allergic to dog dander!

“This guy is weird.” -Dog, probably.

The dog looks nervous AF.

I wonder if the capybara is a pet or is being rehabbed. Eitherway it seems to me that the capybara has picked up some behavior from the dog

And fair enough. There’s some clear grazing behavior going on; and I suspect that once a capybara decides that you are fodder it can graze its way through flesh at a pretty fair clip.

i’m having such a hard time deciding how big a capybara is (also resisting the urge to google it). it looks like he’s licking the dog and getting all excited.

[Grey_Devil]

They can get relatively big, though in relative terms they get about as big as a medium sized dog.

That’s what it looks like.
