Case Study 01: Aspiration Pneumonia

ROUS FoundationCaseStudy

The linked pdf below covers the illness and recovery of my capybara, Mudskipper Rous, from a bout of pneumonia. I am going to cover as much detail as I think will be useful to others who have capybaras that have, or are suspected of having, pneumonia.

When I met baby Caplin Rous in July 2007 it changed my life. Losing him to liver disease in January of 2011 changed it again. I want to do what I can to help capybaras live long, happy lives in captivity.
