Sites on the range


Just driving along the trails we saw all sorts of animals. One of my favorite was the capybara - the world's largest rodent - about the size of a Labrador retriever. There were dozens of them in groups, along the shores of the salinas, just sunning themselves along the trails. They were not being studied at this location but I was fascinated with them just the same. Reminded me of the guinea pig I used to have as a kid.
