At first, a baby capybara eats only milk, as do all baby mammals. After it is only about a week old, it begins to eat grass, but continues to suckle as well (from any female in its group) until it is weaned at about 16 weeks old. It then fully adopts the adults' diet of grasses, aquatic plants, fruits, and tree bark.
