WHAT HAS A PINK NOSE, WHITE WHISKERS AND FIGHTS CLIMATE CHANGE?

Well that’s a mystery for you. I pride myself on being able to identify WRU (Wrong Rodent Use) in photos accompanying beaver stories. But this clever video from PBS Above the Noise teen educational series has me stumped. I even wrote them and said whatever mysterious animal that was it wasn’t a beaver. And they wrote back and said, whoops!

“Good call! Probably a capybara!”

Which is even funnier, because how many capybaras do you know with white whiskers and pink noses?

Anyway the rest of the video is well done and stars our friend Emily Fairfax, it makes sense and is worth sharing.

Maybe it’s a pet. Like a hamster. Hmm. I think I’ll name him “peeve”.
