THE CAPYBARA IN ARGENTINA

BIOLOGICAL ASPECTS
The capybara, whose scientific name is Hydrochaeris hydrochaeris, is a rodent of wide distribution in the wetlands of the north and center of Argentina. It is also know under the common names of capybara in Brazil and chigüire in Colombia and Venezuela.
In Argentina the range of this species covers the wetlands of the provinces of Misiones, Corrientes, Chaco, Formosa, Entre Ríos, Santa Fe, Córdoba and Buenos Aires.
The capybaras are amphibious animals, that is, they have of semi-aquatic habits. They can be found in pools, lagoons, swamps, streams, and other types of water bodies. Adult males have an average weight of around 55 kg. although in some extreme cases they can reach 70 kg. The female has an average of 5 newborns per litter.
The capybara is a herbivorous animal: its diet is based on grasses and other fresh herbs, as well as some grains and fruits. Its activity starts at dusk and decreases at dawn. During the rest of the day it rests in the shade near water bodies. In the presence of strangers it dives underwater, swimming skillfully using their interdigital foot membranes.
They form family groups, in some cases of numerous individuals, with dominating male leading the group, which is composed of several females, their young and subordinated males. The dominating male also carries out the role of vigilance and defense of the group, alerting it in case of danger. It is common to observe aggressions among the males of different groups.

CONSERVATION OF THE CAPYBARA
The capybara is a renewable natural resource that can be used in an integral fashion: the meat as well as the fat and the leather are industrialized.
As of 2002 there was no research providing information on the status of the wild populations, nor the volume of capybaras traded. Therefore de Directorate of Wild Fauna of Argentina’s Secretary of the Environment and Sustainable Development, along with the provinces of the range of the capybara, and researchers of the University of Belgrano, have developed a project to determine the status of the capybara populations, with the financial support of the private sector. The main goal of this project is the development of a management program to establish uniformity of criteria and a normative framework for the sustainable use of capybara’s populations in all the provinces involved. The project also includes activities of diffusion and public awareness.
The goal of the project is to set the foundations for a sustainable use through an exploitation compatible with the conservation of capybara’s populations and their habitats, and leading to a reactivation of the provincial economies.
