**亮点原创** Have you ever seen capybaras(水豚)? They were thought to be a kind of pig in the p 1 ，but now we know that they are the largest rodents(啮齿动物）on the Earth. Guess what! They are new stars on social media now!
Seeing them in the wild，you might be surprised at f 2 because they look like giant guinea pigs，which are in fact one of their closest relatives. Capybaras' bodies are covered in reddish - brown fur. When swimming around，t 3 to their small eyes，noses and hairless ears which are high on their heads，they're able to see the above - water things around them. That's w 4 they can protect themselves from danger easily. A capybara w 5 around 50 kilograms and it can grow to 1.5 metres in length. Female capybaras are usually a little heavier than the males.
Most of them live in South America and like to stay in comfortable places with lots of water. Pantanal，the world's largest freshwater wetland，is a p 6 place for them to live. Capybaras usually eat grass. But they sometimes eat their own poop(排泄物）because it is helpful for them to get all the things they need.
Capybaras are good swimmers and love to play with water. They usually live in g 7 of 10 to 20（and up to 100 during the dry season）. They also like chatting with each other very much. They e 8 themselves by making different kinds of sounds，including purring(发出呼噜声），barking，whistling，cackling and grunting. Each sound has an important meaning，from warning the group of danger to sending signals of leaving. It's like a capybara l 9 .
With good personalities，capybaras have become increasingly popular on social media. They get along with almost all the other animals and share their homes with birds and turtles，just like a big animal family living t 10 peacefully. They are calm and don't really care about what goes on around them. Other animals can do whatever they feel like if they don't hurt the capybaras. But if capybaras are aware of a risk，they may attack others to protect themselves.
