Capivara

The capybara, also called capybara, capincho, beque, trombudo, box, cachapu, porcupine, cunum and cubu, is a species of rodent mammal of the Caviidae family and subfamily Hydrochoerinae. Some authors consider that it should be classified in a family of its own. It is included in the same group of rodents which are classified as pacas, agoutis, preas and guinea pig. It occurs throughout South America to the east of the Andes in habitats associated with rivers, lakes and marshes, from sea level up to 1,300 m altitude. Extremely adaptable, it can occur in environments highly altered by man. It is the largest rodent in the world, weighing up to 91 kg and measuring up to 1.2 m in length and 60 cm at the withers. The coat is dense, reddish to dark brown. It is possible to distinguish males because of the presence of a prominent gland in the muzzle although sexual dimorphism is not apparent. There are a number of adaptations in the digestive system to herbivory, mainly in the cecum. A capivara, também chamada de carpincho, capincho, beque, trombudo, caixa, cachapu, porco-capivara, cunum e cubu, é uma espécie de mamífero roedor da família Caviidae e subfamília Hydrochoerinae. Alguns autores consideram que deva ser classificada em uma família própria. Está incluída no mesmo grupo de roedores ao qual se classificam as pacas, cutias, os preás e o porquinho-da-índia. Ocorre por toda a América do Sul ao leste dos Andes em habitats associados a rios, lagos e pântanos, do nível do mar até 1 300 m de altitude. Extremamente adaptável, pode ocorrer em ambientes altamente alterados pelo homem. É o maior roedor do mundo, pesando até 91 kg e medindo até 1,2 m de comprimento e 60 cm na altura da cernelha. A pelagem é densa, de cor avermelhada a marrom escuro. É possível distinguir os machos por conta da presença de uma glândula proeminente no focinho apesar do dimorfismo sexual não ser aparente. Existem uma série de adaptações no sistema digestório à herbivoria, principalmente no ceco.
