Capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris)

These fat capybaras were grazing a lush pasture of ryegrass near the river.

As we approached them, they ran and hid themselves on the forest.

I entered the forest and followed a trail down the river. Suddenly, I listened sounds of bodies diving in the water.

My heart started to beat faster and I took this picture just before starting to film.

This is a detail of the previous picture.

This one was taken after the shooting of the 38-seconds-film.
Enjoy it, and feel some of the thrill I felt when I was shooting it!
