They found that the home range of a group of capybaras included the three major habitat types in the area. Moreover, it can be shown that capybaras can maintain available pastures in places where they forage. All of these adaptations and the behavioural features described here allow us to assert that capybaras behave as optimal consumers. Direct observations were carried out to record group movements and foraging activities of individual capybaras when feeding on specific plant species. In this paper, we studied patterns in the foraging behaviour of capybaras in relation to differences in resource quality both according to habitat and to season. Do capybaras 'manage' their resources? Capybara, rabbits, hamsters and some other related species are hindgut fermenters which digest cellulose by microbial fermentation.
