A Valentine’s Capygram: This Giant Rodent Will Eat An Edible Note In Honor Of Your Loved One.

Pumpkin time! This capybara is celebrating Valentine’s Day in the yummiest way ever: by eating your love notes!

Pay to have your note written on wafer paper, and Pumpkin the Capybara will chew it right up in the most adorable way imaginable.

Pumpkin the Capybara is a beautiful activist, whose note munching is actually for a great cause. For folks who purchase a note, money goes to support the non-profit education and outreach offered at Dark Wings Wildlife.

Dark Wings Wildlife isn’t a rescue. Instead, they’re an organization focused on providing learning opportunities with interesting and beautiful wildlife, like Pumpkin! Of course, kids are obsessed with her — just look at that big ‘ole snoot!

And before you ask — the wafer paper is totally safe for Pumpkin (and frankly, she can’t get enough of the stuff). This paper is potato starch, and the marker is kid’s food coloring. What a safe and delicious way to celebrate Valentine’s Day!

This capybara loves eating your love notes for a good cause. Could she get any cuter?

Obviously, a Valentine’s Day note from a capybara is the best V-Day gift on Earth. Thanks for the sweet notes, Pumpkin!
