The Capybara Café
What Do Capybaras Eat?
Capybaras are herbivores. In the wild, their diet is centered on grasses and aquatic vegetation, with feeding patterns influenced by habitat and season.
A plant based diet
Grasses are an important food source for wild capybaras. Their digestive system is adapted to extracting nutrition from fibrous plant material.
Teeth that keep growing
Like other rodents, capybaras have incisors that grow continuously. Chewing fibrous foods contributes to normal tooth wear.
Care is more than a menu
Diets for animals in human care should be planned around species needs, body condition and veterinary guidance rather than human snack preferences.
Our promise: We do not promise specific animal behavior. Animals are individuals and may choose to engage, explore, rest or take space.
