Results: The results show that the average home range of capybaras was 183 ha, similar to reported home ranges of capybaras in the Brazilian Pantanal. Within the study area, capybaras used and selected water significantly more than Chaco forest and pasture land, and had lower than expected use of shrub forest. Overall, capybaras were located 95% of the time < 500 m from permanent water, with the greatest distances from water occurring at 3:00 and 5:00 AM. Average year round body temperature was 36.15 °C. There was a significant positive correlation between body temperature and distance from water, and a significant negative correlation between distance from water and Chaco ambient temperature. Discussion: These findings suggest that capybaras use water to thermoregulate. The results show how anthropogenic habitat modification has allowed capybaras to thrive in a harsh xeric environment, and assists us in understanding how capybaras can expand into deforested areas. This study provides valuable information for the future management of the species in the Dry Chaco region of Paraguay.
