Caplin Rous in Attack of the Capybara

Caplin attacks Philip but is restrained by a leash. There are only two people Caplin doesn't like, Philip and Carol, but when he doesn't like someone, he can be very aggressive. In this video we are working to get him to tolerate Philip. Philip is using a plastic water gun as a defensive shield--most of the time.

Caplin took a dislike to Philip about eight months ago, apparently because Philip stomped his feet at him. He has a very good memory for people, even though he went for about three months without seeing Philip, he still remembers that he hates him. However, I believe he can be trained out of this with enough exposure.

maybe if you quit hitting him and spraying him with a damn watergun he would come around a little easier

this is awful... Philip has hit Caplin so many times already with the squirt gun... this is like provoking a rabbit until it lunges and bites. You should have stopped and walked away. Getting Caplin to trust Philip is never going to work... I can't believe you all even did this... it's like you wanted Caplin to bite Philip... and telling Caplin it's okay? Philip seems to be dying to squirt the poor animal! Obviously Philip does not like the Cabybara! Philip should stay away from him!!

I highly doubt using a watergun on him will teach him anything about tolerating someone. It would make me hate them more, if I were Caplin.

@XantinovaX Just watched this. Can't believe the guy with the gun.... Agree with everything you said. You don't get anybody to like you by waving any kind of weapon in their faces.

How about leave the poor animal alone, you dick!!! Hell, I'd kick your ass too if your kept messing with me like that!

stupid people.

I hope Caplin Bites the Hell out of that stupid kid Phillip. You spray me with water and then try and palm me in the face, you think I'd be happy or submissive? This was disgusting behavior.

The lion's will take the food given and might take the person as food too. Becareful when you train the cappy. I'll be ending it here. I hope I help in some ways.

Life is not easy to live and not easy to train when they are from the animal kingdom. Here are my suggestion: Don't stress the cappy and don't force the Cappy. Use a more friendly approach such as letting the unexpected person feed the cappy with his most favorite food. This does not mean the immediately becomes good friend. It'll take time depending on the cappy's learning ability to recognize a person as a friend or foe. Sometimes this method don't even work with wild animal like the lions.

until exhausted or if not the animal will become very fearful of his surrounding and it will cause them to fun in terror when someone or something engage them. However we dont want that to happen. We want the Cappy to stay in a proper and balance and calm state of mind. The best form and proper form to train almost all animals is during this stage. It is however difficult to achieve this level with the unexpected surrounding if other people and it involves people to surround them too. Life is-

I want to suggest that if you want to train this animal, you'll have to watch him carefully, meaning how he behaves, what kind of stuff angers him? example: when the cappy was being engage by philip, the cappy flee to a more comfortable surrounding but the cappy kept being chased by philip which caused it to go in defense mode, this is where most animals aggressiveness will begin to show and if taken over the limit the animal will go into rage mode attacking everything in his/her path until-
