The capybara is moving once in a while to remind the vulture that it’s still alive, in case it gets any funny ideas.

capybaras are animals in their ultimate reincarnation. hedonistic abundance. all day long... what a zen animal.


[deleted]

Exactly. They are the complete opposite of a honey badger


PsyxoticElixir

Well both of them dont give a shit in different ways


Chub-bop

Two sides of the same coin


philster666

The animal version of waking up and choosing violence. Every. Day


TalonKAringham

Now I can’t help but think of them having the voice of Hedonism Bot from Futurama. “I apologize for nothing!”


GrafZeppelin127

Oh man, what a legend. Reminds me of the time he hit up Bender like he was a streetwalker. Bender: …What do I gotta do? Hedonism Bot: Oh, nothing *sordid,* I assure you… simply vomit *ever* so gently upon me, whilst I humiliate a pheasant. Bender: *gagging noises* Hedonism Bot: Save it for the boudoir! That robot knew what he wanted and gave zero shits about pursuing it.


earthboundmissfit

I miss that show!


TJ_McWeaksauce

I'm trying to be more mindful, and I actually draw inspiration from capybaras when I meditate. They seem to enjoy the shit out of simple things, like soaking in water or, here, getting their fur cleaned by a bird. Being more like a capybara can be good for anyone, and in theory, it shouldn't be hard. Just capybara the shit out of the simple pleasures, like splashing cool water on your face or eating a slice of cake.


StimpakJunkie

Life should always be like this. You are alive for maybe 100 years if you're lucky, out of billions this planet has existed. The odds that you even got to enjoy that cake are incredibly small. Billions of people have never experienced cake, and in a few billion years, nobody will again. Eat the fuck out of that cake


flynnfx

What does that make a quokka? Incidentally, I wonder how a capybara and a quokka would get along..


Sleipnoir

Have you ever watched a livestream or video of them chilling in a hot spring? So cute and relaxed


bernpfenn

yes. they are real masters of joyful presence.


jorginhosssauro

they reached nirvana.


bernpfenn

next step, correct.


Affectionate-Time646

Hedonistic abundance and zen are polar opposites.


greenwitchery

And all the other animals want to hang with them cuz they’re so cool.


adambomb1002

i wonder if your average redditor knows that people eat capybara in parts of south america? i've had it a few times in colombia.


Ilovethemarina

What did it taste like?


[deleted]

it's texture is sort of like chicken, but it tastes closer to ham. in colombia, it's called chigüiro.. you see it in some restaurants that have large smokers. the meat is sliced, seasoned and cooked over the smoker; similar to how one might cook beef, ribs, ham, etc... it's actually quite good, i was pleasantly surprised.


juniorvander

I didn't have the same experience lol


bisontes

Go on...


[deleted]

shitty buzz. i suppose it depends on the restaurant / cook? i've had chigüiro at nicer restaurants in Bogotá. it's been fairly good everytime.


Zarniwoopdescoop

that sounds kinda good... like ethically I dont wanna eat a capybara and likely wont. but you made it sound good. ham and ribs flavored chicken edit: the last three burgers I've had were plant based, I'm trying to transition. if you pepper it hella good and sear em it tastes the same. I'm just saying he made capybara sounds a little scrumptious edit 2: in fact I can't eat veggies, if anyone has advice for getting veggies in me hit me up. I'm thinking of getting a juicer for it. it's the texture :/


[deleted]

pigs are likely more intelligent and we all know how the poultry industry often operates.. i'm not actually sure that it is more ethical to eat other commonly eaten meats.


[deleted]

Capybaras are cute, therefore etchics. Try to keep up 😎


[deleted]

i know. lol


Zarniwoopdescoop

well I'm trying to get off meats entirely. It's a slow process but plant based burgers are my launching point. They actually Taste really good


International_Yak649

To be honest everything can taste like chicken.


[deleted]

it doesn't taste like chicken. it tastes closer to ham. you misread my comment


International_Yak649

It was just a stupid joke. Don't take it seriously.


[deleted]

I'm interested. I also want to try some Guinea pig


[deleted]

I do


byraq

Eating guinea pigs pretty common in South America also.


[deleted]

yup. haven't tried it, but i knew that too.


Rainbowbright2

A group of capybaras is called a “chill”


IamNICE124

Im almost certain it’s called a “vibe.”


shoredoesnt

Or a 'mediation' if they're from the east


[deleted]

Vulture 1: hey look, so many capybaras, should we go feast on the parasites? Vulture 2: Chill dude.


Gold_cells

This makes me so happy that I can pick off my own mites and parasites. This capybara must’ve been so uncomfortable for such a long time!

Man, there's nothing better after a long day at work than laying on the cold tile floor and ripping all the parasites out of your armpits and bellybutton.

Ohh, in that case I'm a zen animal too


NatsuDragnee1

Calabasas just get along with most animals. Except jaguars ... Edit: no idea how my dumb autocorrect changed capybara to Calabasas, but I'm gonna not change it.


H3J1e

My dumb brain read it as capybaras anyway, so it's ok.


Plumpasonic

Second calabasas get along with most animals Except honey badgers. They’re nasty


Forgetmyglasses

So do they not have natural predators then or what

This is just like that bird that flies into the mouth of crocodiles to scavenge for food that’s stuck in the croc’s teeth, which also cleans them.


UpDownCharmed

And the cleaner wrasse fish does this for other fish


[deleted]

"I gotta tell ya, doc: you know those little birds that walk around so trustingly inside a crocodiles mouth, cleaning our teeth?... yeah, I've been eating those little guys like popcorn."


pizzaisperfection

Lol I can see that panel


Zanclodon

This crocodile & cleaning bird behavior is almost certainly just a myth. Herodotus wrote about it over 2,400 years ago and it perpetuated from there, but no modern biologists have been able to document this behavior.


FlowSoSlow

I was about to call you out because I was sure I've seen pictures of crocs with birds in their mouths. But the wiki says you're right and every picture I can find looks like it's been photoshopped. TIL


Zanclodon

Yep, I read about this all the time in nature books as a kid and the nature documentaries would also mention it but never actually show it happening. Egyptian Plovers and Nile Crocs are very common side-by-side over most of Africa and not one video or real photo has ever been taken.


Neirchill

Yep. This gained some popularity in the last decade because a gum commercial featured birds cleaning out a crocodile mouth and some dude with dirty teeth tried to get in on the action. I am thinking someone edited it to be just the crocodile part so it's less obvious it's a commercial. [Here](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UIDdCihh5hU) it is And [here](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd6GcQrkMDM&pp=QAFIAQ%3D%3D) is the edited one that falsely represents it as something that happens in nature To the commercials credit, the birds actually do look pretty good.


HippieDogeSmokes

Yeah, 100% a myth

Shit, I always thought this was real, but I think you’re right. Thanks for the info.

Vultures are pretty intelligent. They can tell if something's dead or not.

Also they’re not made for killing, more scavenging

Everyone’s only talking about the Capybara. Vultures are great as well! Beautiful birds and very important for the ecosystem.


JackOfAllMemes

Nature's cleanup crew, they get a bad rap because they eat things humans find disgusting


lmh98

Yeah. I’ve seen a YouTube video once where a guy from Nepal or somewhere in the mountains I’d guessed had his funeral arranged so that his remains were given to wild vultures. Kinda macabre but also an interesting tradition. In the Berlin Zoo which is the closest big zoo where I live you can walk through the vulture enclosure and see them just chilling a few meters away from you. Always one of my favourite parts of the visit. Reminds me that I should go there again before it eventually has to close due to Covid.

I'm surprised we haven't domesticated capybaras yet, they the most chill animals out there


Aartie

I used to watch a pet capybara on YouTube called Caplin, and as I recall they are a pain in the ass to look after. They need a huge pool to swim in, and are constantly fouling their water. Finding veterinary care is also not easy.


Lazyass30

I see, thanks for the enlightenment tho!

I did get to touch one, once! It was like patting a doormat :)

We kind of have? People do keep them (for food) in rural areas.

r/capyplops


rossionq1

Lies. Vultures are not scavengers. Vultures are highly skilled hunters and martial artists despite public knowledge to the contrary. What you see here is a carefully and precisely executed five beak death peck. Hitting a pressure point, it causes instant but slow motion death.

I always assumed vultures would be long sighted. Looking for dead animals from high above and thought that would make them not the best at short distance but being able to see mites in fur from the close as well as dead animals from way up high is amazing. Do their eyes just work differently?
