Romeo and Tuff’n live just outside Las Vegas and graciously showed me their princely lifestyle! These male capybaras were acquired separately, and are around 2 years old, nearly full grown. Tuff’n is a couple months younger than Romeo and is a special needs capybara: he has little or no vision in his right eye.

I have been following them on facebook but this was my first opportunity to meet Romeo and Tuff’n. Dick (The Bartender) met them last year, but none of his descriptions or photos prepared me for the dedication of their owners. These capybara «brothers» are truly central to the life of their owners! So they go to the park every day!

Georgi, Mia, and Elizabeth

Georgi brought Mia to the park, too.

Mia lives with a male and female capybara near her own age, but this was the first…
