It turns out that a lot of zoos have capybaras. Websites lie, google sends updates daily, and capybaras get transferred from one zoo to another at the drop of a hat. That’s where you enter the picture. Could you please help the Farm Manager keep this list up-to-date by dropping her a line? If you send photos, I’ll talk her into making a gallery. If she can keep this list current, we won’t hear from disgruntled customers about an erroneous listing. Face it, you get what you pay for.
Here’s the list:

The Cincinnati Zoo does not have Capybaras as of 2017ish. They were moved out of an outdated habitat to make room for a new zone. They haven’t returned!

That’s disappointing. It’s also disappointing to see capybaras exhibited on dirt or concrete. Keep an eye on this and let us know if they magically reappear in a tropical paradise with lots of grass and swimming!
