He's a South American rodent, and that's about all I know. I saw them roaming freely in the Buenos Aires zoo. I included a shot with a goose for perspective.
I imagine it to be woodlands and/or jungle in Central South America
Yes, he's definitely not a Capybara/Carpincho, but resemble one, a bit. Capybaras are my favourite animal!
