2. Venezuelan Llanos Plains
Another vital environment for capybara numbers are the large savannas of the Venezuelan Llanos.From flood plains during the rainy season to dry savannas in the dry season, these large grasslands undergo tremendous seasonal variations.Among the local capybara populations, this dynamic habitat has resulted in special adaptations since they have learnt to travel between several sites depending on water levels.The ecosystem has many natural depressions that, even in dry times, hold water and provide the capybaras necessary cover.While the seasonal floods preserves the soil’s fertility and advances the growth of nutritious grasses, the mix of open grasslands and scattered tree clusters provides ideal circumstances for both grazing and cover.
