Even the babies are waiting patiently 💞By Stephen Messenger
Capybaras, the worlds largest rodents, are also among the cutest and chillest animals on the planet. But now theres one more positive to add to that list.
Apparently, theyre perfect pedestrians, too.

Earlier this month, passersby in Cuiabá, Brazil, happened upon a curious and adorable scene. A large group of capybaras, big and small, were gathered patiently near a crosswalk along a busy three-lane road.
But what were they doing there? Well, you'll see.

Turns out, the clever capybaras were waiting patiently for a break in traffic so the whole family could safely cross evidently, having figured out the rules of road safety.
Great job!
