Yep I would agree with you fully there. I enjoyed to fun articles at first. Now its just disappointing they haven't been found yet. It's really only a matter of time before something finds and kills both of them or they get hit by a car. Or will they be on the loose still come winter and freeze to death?
I'm quite surprised they haven't been able to catch them yet. Surely they would be relatively easy to find in the Park, and then an experienced marksman could tranq them?
Apparently capybaras are smarter than people or at least the people trying to catch these two. It's just embarrassing now that they are still on the loose.
