Baby Capybara "Tupi" Viral Fame
Tupi, a tiny brown baby capybara at San Antonio Zoo (resembling a rabbit-bunny mix), went viral in late 2024 for adorable videos of it snuggling mom/auntie, refusing to leave the food bowl, and playfully munching. Videos amassed millions of views on TikTok/Instagram, drawing crowds asking "Where's Tupi?" even inspiring an unofficial cryptocurrency (zoo unaffiliated). Staff love the buzz but await gender confirmation as Tupi grows.😍
