The humans moved into the capybara’s habitat, not the other way around.
it was a mistake to frame the rodent influx as an invasion. “It’s the other way round: Nordelta invaded the ecosystem of the carpinchos,”

I’ve been mentally substituting “chupacabra” for “capybara” as I read this. Now that would be an interesting video.

I apologize to all members of the rodent community for my thoughtless defamatory remarks.

They’re mammals, so yes.
Now comes the questions of:
- Will they sit still and quietly long enough to be milked
- Is their milk palatable to people?
- Will people really care about #2 or just drink it to look cool?
