Capybaras are one of the chillest animals. They're very common in my country and a fun occurrence: they're sometimes seen in cities with the group waiting on the sidewalk for the street sign to close before they cross the street.

Animals were classified completely differently before Carl Linneaus established the modern classification system. Bats were considered birds, whales were considered fish, etc. It is not wrong, it is just a different criteria of classifying.
