San Antonio Zoo welcomes capybaras for the first time since 2018
For the first time in more than five years, the San Antonio Zoo is host to capybaras, the world's largest rodents. Capybaras Ginny and Luna, both 3 years old, moved into the facility's riverside habitat on Thursday, according to a Facebook post from zoo officials. The new residents won't be living alone, however, as they share their new home with anteaters Demetrio and Sprout. "We are excited to unveil this new mixed-species habitat at San Antonio Zoo," CEO Tim Morrow said in a statement.
