Cute du Jour

I wish there was a video.

Zoo Berlin recently welcomed five baby Capybaras to their South American exhibit! Born just several weeks ago, the five pups, along with mother, Lucia, explored their enclosure for the first time! Careful to stay close to mother and each other, they enjoyed their time investigating various aspects of their home at the zoo.


We have a pair of capybaras at Lincoln Park Zoo, but they don't seem to be interested in breeding. Pity.

More pictures and much more information at the link.
