Wow, Look at the Bristles on This Critter! I'm Thinking BRUSH.

The Capybara is actually the world's biggest rodent. They look docile enough to harvest hair from without killing, so you would have a basically unlimited supply. They are very aquatic so the bristles should last for many years in a brush.

 

[Hoka Hey]

That’s a big rodent! Wonder how stiff the hair is?
You’ll have to see if you can get one of our Australian members to go Shave one. Preferably on video.

Good thing they don't appear to be aggressive!

Looks like an overfed guinea pig. Yeah, one or two and you could be in the brush making business.

 

[DCRIII]

I'd try a brush made from their hair!

Those are Anaconda food. May make a decent brush though.

 

[Nick Flores]

Their hair is very coarse and oily feeling. Not sure it would make a good brush but I'd try one.

Taking orders . . .

They look worried.

They look worried.

That's actually what guinea pigs look like when sleeping.

 

[Quink]

A little off topic... but has anyone tried making a brush from Deer hair???
