An Unusual Pet

This is the most unusual pet I have ever seen. The capybara is related to the guinea pig. It is the world’s largest living rodent.

This capybara lives in Texas with Melanie Typaldos. His name is Caplin Rous (ROUS stands for Rodent of Unusual Size and is pronounced like “rose”). The pet was named after the character of the movie “The Princess Bride”. Caplin Rous can do some tricks and walk on a leash.
