Can I have a capybara as a pet in the US?

Ever heard of the large pet rodent the capybara?

  • Ever heard of it? What do you know about the capybara? Here's a video about it on the All Pets Forum: http://www.allpetsforum.com/index.php?topic=175.0

  • Answer:

    Yep. :3 Capybaras have heavy, barrel-shaped bodies and short heads with reddish-brown fur on the upper part of their body that turns yellowish-brown underneath. Adult capybaras may grow to 130 centimetres (4.3 ft) in length, and weigh up to 140 lb. Capybaras have slightly webbed feet, no tail and 20 teeth. Their back legs are slightly longer than their front legs and their muzzles are blunt with eyes, nostrils, and ears on top of their head.
