Capybara is excited

I don’t think so. I see three rabbit behaviours in that clip - grooming, binkying and (maybe) checking for cecotropes. I think it’s more likely they’re natural capybara behaviours that are shared with rabbits than they’re behaviours its learnt from a dog.

Vet: See Speak is not a dog. He is a capybara
Tick: He’s really a rodent?!?!?
Vet: World’s largest.

I’d compare them to a medium size pig but there’s certainly a range.

I expected the “excited” capybara to show the usual zen-like calm, but I was surprised and amused by how bouncy this one actually was! :slight_smile:

You know that a medium sized pig is the size of a small compact car, right? That would surely be a rodent of unusual size!

Capybara is showing off his Emu impersonation. “Emus be like this!”

I am impressed by Dog’s patience in the face of being grazed on by a large rodent. Good doggo 13/10.

Is that that goat yoga we keep hearing about?

About 100-150 pounds IIRC, so I would say a large dog.

I’m not sure what yoga position that capybara is in… but now we need goat and capybara yoga, because the world sucks and needs that to make it better.
