Records
Born October 30, 2018, at Saitama Children's Zoo, one of five siblings born to Shuma and Kokone. He was on display for a long time in the zoo's Capybara and Wallaby Plaza, where many visitors smiled watching him soak in the water or sleep contentedly.
In October 2024 he moved to Nagasaki Bio Park for breeding. Nagasaki Bio Park, a zoo in Kyushu, is known for its free-roaming capybaras that visitors can touch and feed; the well-habituated animals sometimes fall asleep contentedly when stroked.
