A championship in eating watermelons among capybaras was held in Japan

7 August 2024

The "Kapilimpiad" - a watermelon-eating competition among capybaras - was held in Japan. The event, in which animals from five zoos in the country took part, has been held for 9 years now.

Watch the Olympics in Paris? Or maybe it would be better...

This year, just like last year, the winner was a capybara named Hetima, who ate half a kilo of watermelon in 1 minute 48 seconds.
