I have some sizable woodchucks in my yard. The little jerks! The babies are cute, though. I call them Woodchips.

Please do not disrespect the noble marmot here, where #GroundhogDay is a sacred holiday. “Woodchips” however is now the officially scientific term for young groundhogs. #PowerToTheRodents!!!

Starting a petition to have them renamed Guineabigs.

Do they make squeaky noises when I hug them? They look adorable, but i have the feeling they wouldn't like the desert atmosphere (where i live). I will have to see them while on vacation! They are soooo cute!

Watch the movie, Flow. Besides the cat, dog, Secretary bird and Lemur, there is also Capybara that all work together. m.imdb.com/title/tt4772...

Yeah it was! I love animated films.l, as well as cats. I also really liked The Wild Robot, though a completely different type and style of movie, it was really well done. m.imdb.com/title/tt2962...

It was a superb animation. I liked it a lot. Have you seen "Flow?" If you like cats you would enjoy that one. www.imdb.com/title/tt4772...

I read that during the huge fires in Australia, the capybara would funnel panicked animals into their deep burrows to escape the fires. Thats pretty amazing!

They just opened a Capybara Cafe in St Petersburg, Florida. I guess customers sit on the floor and sip beverages while Capybara run around ?
