They love water.Capybaras spend a lot of time in water.Their special feet help them move quickly through water，and they can also stay underwater for up to five minutes at a time.Capybaras like to sleep in water to avoid getting sun burnt.
They have an unusual diet.Capybaras love to eat hard grasses，which require chewing （咀嚼）many times.To finish the long chewing，capybaras' teeth never stop growing.Capybaras also eat their own waste.They do this because the grasses they eat are too hard to digest（消化）.By eating its waste，a capybara can get useful bacteria （細(xì)菌） into its stomach to help it digest food and get rid of the rest.
