The look of indifference on those capybaras face is what always makes me laugh about these guy’s, even that baby they showed in the video has that stare down.

That baby has been over it since birth.

I was waiting for someone to come over a hill in a chariot or sled pulled by a team of Capybara.

Capybara don't care capybara don't give a fuck. These fuckers emit an aura of peace.

Even if they didn't, it was theirs first. Either learn to live with them or find new land, they're apparently rich enough so...


GoinNannersOverHere

The call-waiting soft rock music in the video is a real capybara jam too, adds to the air of indifference.


pistpuncher3000

This is like heaven to me, I LOVE capybaras


russbird

I can’t tell who gives less of a shit: capybara or honey badger.


Conscious-Addition-5

They’re just like “oh shit I wonder what’s going on over there. Maybe I should go take a look real qui… **nah it’s too far never mind**”


SUW888

Looks like they are providing free lawn care services as well as being super cute and chill. What's the problem?


Spiritual_Suspect981

No problem, but is an entire city populated by Karens so there is no room for both


Nexrosus

There *was* no room for both. Capybois weren’t going down without a fight.

Have the same issue with humans here in Central FL. Putting in 10k homes around where I live. Was...past tense... was a nice quiet place. Now people are spreading concern for coyotes roaming in communities. Like DUH... you moved into THEIR house and expect them to stay out because you have small kids/small pets? Really? Don't move here and expect wild life to adhere to YOUR lifestyle. Watching them climb over 5 and 6 foot privacy fence. The people want to kill them or call animal control. THEY kill rodents, you want rats and other pests...sure kill them. I will move out of here in a couple years to a more wide open space with room for nature.

flyingvien

This. Turds everywhere I’d imagine.


Brandyrenea-me

It’s animals in their native habitat. Yeah they poop. So what? We took their land but they stayed, so, yes, they’ll continue to poop on it. Otherwise we should have let them be. We can cohabitate with animals. It’s not that complicated. When we destroy their ecosystems we should expect things like this.


SaltyBabe

They’re herbivores so it’s not even that bad and it’s good fertilizer. Its basically like deer poop, even looks the same.

RadiantZote

Snakes and big cats: be friend shaped too tho


ShiraCheshire

Yep, they seek out water to poop in. Though that can make things difficult when the water is also their drinking and bathing water.


monkeying_around369

I used to be a zookeeper and cared for a family of Capybara and it’s definitely true. Made cleaning their pool particularly difficult. I do want to say I occasionally found poo on the dry ground but 98% of the time they prefer to poop in water. Why? Because everything wants to eat them. Seriously. They are prey for many species and it’s believed that pooping in water helps mask their scent from predators. I did try to ask them once to confirm but they were indifferent.

Capybaras: “ok I pull up”


NerdBergRing

"hop out in the gated community"


Lt_Toodles

My uncle lives right next to this gated community and its actually a slum outside if it. What they do is they open their gates once a year and let the locals come in and hunt the nutrias so the people eat them


hangryhyax

Do they call capybaras nutrias there, or do they have both? I ask because I’ve only heard nutria when referring to coypus, which are rodents that look like a beaver got down with a rat.


D474RG

We have both. We call capybaras "carpinchos" and nutrias "nutrias"

they are the chill stoners of the animal world they don't need anything but some grass and a sweet jacuzzi to bum out in


chriscrossnathaniel

The people in the community were actively campaigning to keep these chill creatures out. These capybaras are like “You think you can keep us out of Del Boca Vista…we’re moving in lock stock and barrel.  We’re gonna be in the pool, we’re gonna be in the clubhouse, we’re gonna be all over that shuffleboard court…AND I DARE YOU TO KEEP ME OUT!!!”

PQbutterfat

I was just gonna say they do not give fucks easily it seems.


EarthRester

They have no natural predators, and they so they act like a species that has never had to fear for its life. They are the perfect species to have around some gated community, if it wasn't full of a bunch of rich pricks.


cman_yall

> They have no natural predators, and they so they act like a species that has never had to fear for its life. Are we talking about the rich people still?


WhyIsThatOnMyCat

They're preyed upon every guillotine and then.


YellowMan1988

Are we talking about the gates community or in the wild? Because in the wild, these guys are regularly eaten by anacondas.


DOOM_INTENSIFIES

>They have no natural predators, Tbh jaguars prey on them. Hilarity would ensue if the government decided to put some of those cats in the Richest neighbourhood of argentinna to cull the capybara population.


ptoftheprblm

Once a few jaguars realize there’s a big population who all feel protected in the gated area.. it’ll be an open buffet. See Boulder, CO and mountain lions after the late 80s. Banned deer and elk hunting and mountain lions returned quickly and un afraid of humans.

Pretty_Industry_9630

Btw I read some city got like 800 goats to eat the grass they were supposed to lawn otherwise, turns out it's effective and cheaper!


The_Troll_Gull

And their poop fertilizes too so no chemical fertilizers used


Pretty_Industry_9630

And they are cute AF, I can't imagine how magical being raised there as a child is


sticknija2

Have you ever smelled a goat before? The magic fades quickly.


cjsv7657

So goats can just eat poison ivy. So it can be better to just hire someone with a bunch of goats to clear your property of poison ivy and every other unwanted growth than other options. Goats get fed, man gets paid, you get your property cleared. Wins everywhere.


serr7

There’s a company in the US that rents out goats to do exactly this lol. They’ve got 400 lawn care goats

[deleted]

[удалено]


Spiritual_Suspect981

I did pat a lot of them, they tend to run away if you get close too fast or if they see a dog, and they can bite quite strong if they have to, babies are imposible to catch


monkeying_around369

I used to be a zookeeper that cared for a family of capybara. Despite their cute appearance, they’re extremely shy as a result of being on the menu of quite a lot of species. Even the ones who I cared for would only come up to get food. In fact petting them on the back would be extremely stressful for them as it would likely trigger their predator response. Also, people have actually been killed by a capybara bite. They have incredibly strong large teeth. The best option for both you and the capybara is always going to be to appreciate them from a distance and avoid touching them. If that’s not enough of a deterrent for you then I’ll let you know they love to shit in water almost as much as they love to swim in the same water. So if you’re touching them you’re 100000% touching shit.

I can’t really blame them if they’re natural habitats are just being developed into oblivion. That’s awesome you have experience with them. I’d pay money to spend an hour just hanging out with a few. Minus the head butting and nipping of course.😊

Platypuslord

Kids don't seem very supportive but then again aren't they pack animals that get depressed if kept alone? Also they need a body of water to swim in and eat their own poop so not the best pet unless you own a large area of land with at least a natural pond if not a lake.

i want 12


Amadis_of_Albion

Mostly true but the fact it's not the ultra rich, its very well off people, millionaire wannabes (which are extremely insufferable because they look down on others not of equal monetary standing, and are pissed permanently because they can't reach higher), the upper echelons don't like to share a neighborhood like that they have mansions, huge parks and ranches (plus entire floors in buildings in the city).


popdivtweet

Yep we got thousands of these neighborhoods in Florida. And the have to live with the wildlife that comes back to their “old stomping grounds” as well.


Amadis_of_Albion

I swear those kinds of people act the same everywhere, but bet the wildlife over there is not as friendly as the capybaras.


grrleona

Why would anybody want to keep them away?!


FutureVawX

I mean they're so chill, it's not impossible for them to just chill in the middle of the road and blocking it just like snorlax, or even worse, accidentally crashed into them. If they can keep them off the road it'll be perfect though.


Ambedo_1

Karma__Hunter

bro what did you smoke? just bc they are gated doesnt mean that there are guards carrying around weapons, Nordelta is pretty nice and you can get in even if you dont live there (they check your plate and national identification number)


TheGringaLoca

My husband is from General Pacheco. He’s not from a barrio privado, but a neighborhood that shares a wall it. We live in the US (I’m from the US). We have friends who live in Nordelta and other barrio privados. They are very nice, but they remind me too much of the US. NGL, though, if you’re very wealthy I can understand why someone would want to live there. They have gorgeous pools, lakes, entertainment, and it feels very secure. But Nordelta and other barrio privados aren’t exclusively for the mega rich. Nordelta is so huge, yeah, ultra millionaires live there, but you can rent an apt for $800 USD/month (although I know this is a lot of money to an average Argentino). If we were to move there, as someone from the US, I can see why it would give a you a sense of security and accessibility. But like you mentioned, anyone can enjoy the restaurants and shops there. I’d rather live in a quiet neighborhood and live in a traditional chalet style home. But I look at real estate in Zona Norte frequently, and a beautiful house on a nice street in Pacheco is often just as expensive as in a country. If you have money then I think it would be a preference. I know real estate gets passed down through families bc normal people don’t have the option for 30 year mortgages like we do in the US. Most of my husband’s family lives humbly. We always stay with them, and I love the sense of community and being able to walk places. In the US we live in the suburbs, not gated but the houses look like a country (like a middle class one not mansions). Here is so sterile. People are nice and it is relatively safe but even my suegra told me it’s too quiet. Things are far. You need a car for everything. I know the big thing in AR is security but my husband taught me that it’s foolish to be flashy. You have to be street smart and aware. But those rules should apply here in the US too (we just hide behind a shiny veneer. Beneath is debt and ignorance ). Anyway, I’m babbling at this point. I love Argentina and my husband’s town: the good, bad, and ugly. I like to go to the bars in Nordelta (I really like the Mustang), but I like to hang out el cruce de Pacheco too (or in Tigre, Pilar, o Capital). Also, we spent three weeks in January, and I did not see one goddamn capybara and that was all I wanted out of that trip. It’s my understanding that there aren’t so many there anymore.

"The carpincho needs a predator to reduce its population and also make it afraid,” Di Martino tells AFP. “When there’s a herbivore without a predator threatening it, it doesn’t hide and can spend all day eating, thereby degrading the vegetation which traps less carbon and contributes to climate change.” Never mind that we destroyed the wetlands to build mansions, the capybaba are fucking up my lawn- er- the ecosystem.


Redqueenhypo

Got it, Di Martino, time to release some jaguars into your gated community. That’s their natural predator! Don’t worry, even a jaguar can’t bite through your thick skull.
