As you’ll recall, the proud parents of triplets made international headlines last summer when they escaped from the High Park Zoo.
The two capybaras escaped on the first day that they arrived at the zoo, after being brought in from a breeder in Texas.

For weeks, there were capybara sightings all over the city. Torontonians named the couple Bonnie and Clyde.
The case was finally closed when the pair were found within two weeks of one another after more than a month on the lam.
