A group of capybaras is called a meditation because, well… have you seen them? Capybaras are famously calm, often sitting together in serene clusters along riverbanks, eyes half-closed, looking like they’ve achieved a level of inner peace the rest of us are still chasing. Whether lounging in hot springs, sharing space with birds (like this guy in Brazil’s Pantanal), or simply existing without drama, a gathering of capybaras really does look like a quiet meditation session in the wild. For more group names in the wild, including my just-posted adult tees collection, see the Language of the Wild collection at SpeciesLimited.com.

There are capybara aficionados who have been using the term “clutter.” A clutter of capybaras. We’ve been using the term clutter for over ten years. Just putting it out there for consideration.

Nice. A species as beloved as the capybara is sure to have a few names. Thanks Dobby.
How beautiful. I love it.
Thanks Gerlinde.
This shot would make a good print for your garment selections.
Now available on toddler tees and baby bodysuits.
That’s better Sean! Your former self is rising to the occasion. (No one will understand what I am talking about.)
Right, you’d think I’d be a better advertiser for myself being a former and sometimes current advertiser.
Oooooohmmmm!
Ha, the beloved capybara. I want to do an animated film on a young capybara.
Love these pictures
Thanks Joanie, going to keep them going for a while.
