What is a capybara?: The capybara is the largest rodent in the world. This semi-aquatic rodent lives in swamps, in marshes, and also in forests (near ponds, lakes and rivers). It is found in Central and South America. They spend a lot of time wallowing in mud. These social animals communicate using whistles and barks. They have a life span of 8 to 10 years in the wild. Capybaras range from 40 to 52 inches long and weigh from 60 to 100 pounds. They have thin brown hair that dries off quickly. Webbed toes help them swim. Capybaras are herbivores.
