Future Capybara Changes

Climate change affects the environment and the animals in it. Capybaras in the amazon rainforest will adapt to fit into the dry, hot new climate. Their frame will be bigger but also skinnier to better deal with the heat. A dry climate will cause capybaras to be more land based. This means the toes will be less webbed and the front legs will be stronger to be better suited for running. To swat away flies, the tails will become longer. The ears will be more perked up to hear predators. The fur will be a lighter color and shorter too.
