Tyler, I completely agree!! They have more room at the zoo...I am a little concerned about the well being of these capybaras...

They should also give those cute lil cappi some more room. They look like they want to run around and what not lol

I love these little guys! I always look for them in the indoor jungle at the Sedgewick County Zoo here in Wichita, KS.
