Portrait of a capybara

Portrait of a capybara by Tambako the Jaguar.
The cabybara is the beggest rodent that extsts and they live in South America (jaguar food too ;)
I got a nice shot of this one, it's quite sharp, you can see every single hair. :)

Picture taken in the zoo of Zürich.

Made it in Explore, #331, April 9th, 2009

Oh mais je le connais, lui !
J'en ai vu plusieurs à Montevideo, en Uruguay. Et là-bas notre ami s'appelle un CARPINCHO !
Je vais essayer de retrouver une photo dans mon album numérique et je la mettrai en ligne.
