Wildlife park in capybara baby suprise

Two Baby capybaras have been born at the Curraghs Wildlife Park.

In a recent social media post, the park's education manager described the new additions as a "lovely Autumn surprise".

Liz Brunswick said capybaras "are born fully developed and ready to go".

That means they have been "happily trotting" around the enclosure with their proud mum.

Capybaras are the biggest rodents on Earth.

They are semi-aquatic mammals and are found throughout much of northern and central South America.

What a lovely Autumn surprise!
