00:00We have a bonding this morning, they're trending online because they're so cute.
00:05I know these.
00:07They are the capybaras.
00:09Yes, and this morning, live to the bonding of Jenzel and Erica Laude, there they are.
00:17My dream is to hold a capybara.
00:19The friendliest animal on the planet.
00:21They don't fight.
00:22And they're always calm.
00:25We'll be with them later, so tune in for the first episode.
00:29Next episode, cute overload on our Tuesday morning because we have a cute bonding.
00:37There it is, capybara.
00:40I've never seen one, I want to.
00:42They're so big in real life.
00:44I've seen them last January.
00:46What kind of animal is a capybara?
00:48That's Erica Laude and Tita Jenzel.
00:53Tita Jenzel.
00:54Hi guys, how are our capybara friends?
00:58Hi Tita Jenzel.
00:59I love them.
01:00I know you're overriding.
01:02Hi Miss Lynn and Tito Kaloy.
01:04I love Tita Jenzel.
01:06We're very excited to feed and bond Erica Laude with these very cute capybaras.
01:14Did you know that Erica is a fan of capybaras?
01:18She even has a lamp for her hand.
01:20How are you?
01:22I heard you're hot today.
01:23Yes, I'm hot today.
01:26Don't worry, be happy because we have capybaras with us.
01:30We fed them earlier and you touched them.
01:35How was their feeling?
01:36Their fur is not what I expected that much.
01:40Their fur is a bit rough and heavy.
01:44Their body is hot so it's a bit surprising and unexpected.
01:49Okay, since you're a fan of them and you'll encounter them soon,
01:55I'm sure you have a lot of questions about capybaras.
01:59Let's get started.
02:01We have with us the head of Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Park in Laguna,
02:09the owner and founder, Sir Alfredo Amorado.
02:12Good morning, Sir.
02:13Hi, Erica.
02:14Good morning.
02:15Good morning.
02:18Erica, you can start asking questions.
02:22So, what are the usual foods that capybaras like to eat?
02:31Well, they like to eat grass, fruits, and vegetables.
02:37Corn is their favorite food.
02:40That's why we didn't feed them corn earlier.
02:43They love corn.
02:47This is my main question.
02:53What kind of animals are capybaras?
02:58Capybaras are the biggest rodents.
03:02They are almost a family of guinea pigs.
03:07Guinea pigs?
03:08Yes.
03:09Go ahead, Erica.
03:11You feed them.
03:12They eat so fast.
03:13You can feel his strength through the corn.
03:17So, what are their favorite foods?
03:20Corn.
03:21Oh, I forgot.
03:23Aside from food.
03:25We fed them a lot earlier.
03:27Actually, they are semi-aquatic.
03:29They spend most of their time in the water.
03:33So, they always take a bath there.
03:36At the same time, they also poop and pee there.
03:41So, does that mean they can live in the water?
03:45Actually, they can live in the water for a maximum of 5 minutes.
03:50Then, they can sleep in the water.
03:53But their noses are sticking out so that they can breathe.
03:56Capybaras are good at swimming.
03:58What if they are on the ground?
04:01Well, they can actually run on the ground.
04:04They can run up to a maximum of 35 kilometers per hour.
04:10Per hour.
04:11Like a horse.
04:12Like a small horse.
04:14So, you fed them.
04:18Do they eat fast?
04:21Or...
04:22Okay, go.
04:23No.
04:24Actually, in our experience, they are very kind.
04:27They are the friendliest animals.
04:30I just don't try to carry them.
04:32Because I'm worried that if you carry them,
04:34they might get hurt.
04:36It's possible that they might eat fast.
04:38But it's heavy.
04:39It's like you can't really carry them.
04:43They can weigh up to 65 kilos.
04:46But there's a record of almost 90.
04:48But that's too big.
04:50That's too big.
04:52Can I take them home?
04:55As a pet?
04:56Yeah.
04:57Actually, because they are kind,
05:00they can poop and pee.
05:02But the problem is the environment.
05:06You should have an exclusive pool for them.
05:08And at the same time,
05:09you should register them in the DNR
05:11because they are still wildlife.
05:12Okay.
05:13So, you need to register them
05:14and you need to feed them.
05:16Yeah.
05:17I feel like they are heavier than you.
05:19Yeah, I feel like that.
05:20That's why you can't carry them right away.
05:22How heavy are they?
05:24About 65 kilos.
05:2565?
05:26Yes.
05:27How about you?
05:28How heavy are you?
05:29I'm not so sure.
05:32But sir,
05:33for our guests who want to visit here,
05:36when can they visit?
05:38Hey, guests,
05:39we're open from Tuesday to Sunday
05:42from 9am to 4pm.
05:45I hope you'll visit us.
05:46We're just here.
05:47We're located in Mahaihai, Laguna.
05:48Foot of Mount Banahaw.
05:50It's just there.
05:51And what activities with Capybaras,
05:53what can they do?
05:54So, they can be fed
05:58as long as they are close.
05:59So, we're encouraging them.
06:02We don't force Capybaras to come to us.
06:04We don't force them.
06:06Yes.
06:07Just like this.
06:08Actually, if you give them food,
06:11they'll just move a little bit.
06:13But when they get their first bite,
06:16they won't stop eating.
06:18Exactly.
06:19And if you let it go,
06:21the corn or the food on the stick,
06:24they'll fight.
06:25Yes.
06:26A while ago,
06:27there was a Capybara
06:28that we fed both of them.
06:31The other one was fighting with us.
06:33Right?
06:35And I noticed that they really like corn
06:38because they don't pay much attention to carrots.
06:41Yes.
06:42That's why they fight.
06:44Thank you so much, Sir Al.
06:46I'm sure that our Kapusos and Erica
06:48and me,
06:49we learn a lot.
06:53Wait for me.
06:54What will be my next Hirit?
06:57Here in Hirit, Bulilit.
07:01There are still a lot of animals
07:02like tigers, flamingos, snakes.
07:06Okay, there are still a lot.
07:07Yes, there are still a lot of animals
07:09that we can look forward to.
