Capybaras are difficult to tame herbivores.

Obtaining[edit]

Capybaras can be found in tropical rainforests and tropical swamps only. They can either be tamed by a handler or self-tame in a random event.

Capybaras can be bought and sold in other faction bases and from exotic goods traders. Capybaras purchased from traders will be already tamed.

Summary[edit]

Capybaras are pen animals. Once tamed, pen animals cannot and do not need to be trained any further. But if left outside of a pen or caravan hitching spot, pen animals will eventually roam outside your colony. Making a caravan is not required to tie animals to a caravan hitching spot.

Analysis[edit]

Capybaras are one of many animals that exist to be hunted, or be manhunters, and not much else. They are otherwise outclassed by alpacas.

Nutrition[edit]

When slaughtered, a capybara yields 26 meat and 15 leather as a baby; 53 meat and 21 as a juvenile; or 105 meat and 33 leather as an adult. 1 meat is equal to 0.05 nutrition.

An adult capybara consumes 0.36 nutrition per day, and creates up to 0.22 offspring per day.

When offspring are slaughtered as babies, a female capybara will produce 0.29 nutrition of meat per day, giving a nutrition efficiency of 79.7%.
If the offspring are allowed to grow to adulthood, they will consume an additional 0.86 nutrition per day, but will instead yield 1.16 nutrition per day as they are slaughtered, resulting in a nutrition efficiency of 95.1%.

When considering a population of equal numbers of males and females, these nutrition efficiencies fall to 39.9% for baby slaughter and 73.4% for adult slaughter.

Capybaras are strictly inferior for meat (per unit hunger) than both alpacas and chinchillas, both which can be found in tropical biomes. Alpacas can be sheared for wool and are pack animals, while chinchilla fur is a much more valuable trade good. Alpacas are easier to tame, and come in herds, meaning its easier to get a breeding pair of them.

Training[edit]

This animal can be trained as follows:

Rescue:
Haul:

*As of version 1.1.2610, all animals can be tamed. The percentage of likelihood of success depends on factors such as the Animals Wildness Percentage, Pawn Handling Skill, and others. More information can be found on the animals page.

↑ Coverage determines the chance to hit this body part. It refers to the percentage of the super-part that this part covers, before its own sub-parts claim their own percentage. For example, if the base coverage of the super-part is 100%, and the coverage of the part is 20%, 20% of hits would hit the part, and 80% the super-part. If the part had its own sub-part with 50% coverage, the chances would be 10% sub-part, 10% part, 80% super part.
↑ Target Chance is the actual chance for each part to be be selected as the target when each part's coverage has been taken into account(I.E. Neck covers 7.5% of Torso but Head covers 80% of Neck so it actually has only a 1.5% chance to be selected). This is not pure hit chance, as different damage types propagate damage in different ways. See that page for details.
↑ Note that capacities can affect other capacities in turn. Only the primary effect is listed. See specific pages for details.
↑ This is the part that everything else connects to to be considered 'connected'.
↑ If Moving drops below 16% a pawn cannot move.
↑ A Scratch attack that varies from animal to animal. Each front paw allows one attack.
