[National Geographic Wallpaper] Burrowing Owl (가시올빼미), Capybara (카피바라)

Orinoco River Basin, Venezuela
1996
Robert Caputo

“Emerging at dusk to hunt, a burrowing owl is no threat to a capybara, the world’s largest rodent. Resembling a cross between a guinea pig and a hippopotamus, the web-footed ‘water hog’ may grow to 140 pounds [64 kilograms] and stand knee-high to a man. Its mortal enemies include jaguars, caimans, and cowboys.”

???From “The Orinoco: Into the Heart of Venezuela,” April 1998, National Geographic magazine
