@petfarmviet: Capybara Has SO Many Names Around the World You’ve been calling it a capybara… But did you know it has a TON of different names around the world? In English: capybara. Brazil? Capivara. Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay? Carpincho. Colombia? Chigüiro. Venezuela? Chigüire. Peru? Ronsoco. Panama? Poncho. And Bolivia has names like capiguara and capihuara. But here’s the funny part… In Chinese, it’s called 水豚 — basically, “water pig.” And in Germany, its name also refers to a water pig. Japan says カピバラ. Korea says 카피바라. So this giant, chill rodent basically has a different name everywhere it goes. But no matter what you call it… everyone agrees it’s ridiculously cute. So now I want to know… What do YOU call a capybara? #capybara #capybaras #capybarafacts #AnimalFacts #cuteanimals
