Seven capybaras are living their best lives while cozied up together in a steaming hot tub at the Saitama Children's Zoo in Japan.

On cold days, the zoo lets their pack of giant rodents take long soaks in hot tubs filled with yuzu fruits. The cabybaras can also enjoy showers under warm running water.

Capybaras are notably aquatic animals who can hold their breath underwater for up to five minutes and who require regular access to water to hydrate their dry skin.
