I’ve looked into this because people do keep them as pets… one of the problems is you can’t have just one, ideally they’d be a small herd. And they need somewhere to go swimming and a lot of exercise, and they don’t handle cold well…
They’re good pets in the same way that a herd of goats are good pets. Some people have the situation where they absolutely could have a a few capybaras but they’d be miserable in a Manhattan apartment.
