The Testis of Capybaras (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) [PDF]
Journal of Mammalogy, 1997 We examined the histology of testes of 134 capybaras ( Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris ) and the relationship among mass of testes, body mass, and the ratio of seminiferous tubules to interstitial tissue. The capybara had a low gonadosomatic index (0.14% of body weight, epididymides included) and one of the highest known proportion of nonspermatogenic tissue

Natural infestation of Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris by Amblyomma dubitatum ticks
Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2014 Natural infestation of Amblyomma dubitatum in relation to individual specific attributes of Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris such as sex, body mass and body condition was analyzed. The anatomical distribution of A. dubitatum on H. hyrochaeris was also evaluated. Prevalence of adults and nymphs were significantly higher than prevalence of larvae.
