10. Brazilian Iguazu Falls Region
The region around Iguazu Falls is a paradise for capybaras, combining stunning waterscapes with rich biodiversity. This habitat features everything these animals need to thrive: flowing water, tranquil ponds, and lush vegetation. The constant mist from the falls creates a unique microclimate that supports specific plant communities and provides capybaras with unusual feeding opportunities. The powerful falls and rapids act as natural barriers against some predators, while the ecosystem includes numerous islands and calm backwaters where capybaras can rest and raise their young safely. The combination of diverse water features and plant types makes this habitat particularly unique, offering year-round resources and ideal conditions for capybara social groups.
