Ok, the videos of the cat lovingly head butting the large rodents are adorable.

So we have a Murder of Crows, a Crash of Rhinos, a Conspiracy of Lemurs.

What's a group of capybaras called?

I've got you, fam. Alternative article: https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/leisure/2023/08/08/meet-oyen-zoo-negaras-famed-capybara-cat/

Also, this has been going on since covid so if you google "Oyen" (cat's name), with "Zoo Negara" there is a wealth of material.

#Oyen on tiktok has lots of super cute footage.
