they were Capybaras? I've never heard of Capybaras living in the wild in the U.S. but I sure don't know everything. Maybe there are. Down south Nutria are a far more common and get quite large too. 
Invasive species are a big problem in the U.S. It's not like they invaded, PEOPLE are the problem. They turn their "pets" loose when they get to big to handle. Then they decimate the native flora and fauna.
Boas
Pythons
Nutria
Gambian Rats
Monitor Lizards
Tegu Lizards
Fire Ants
Zebra Mussels
Snakehead Fish
Gobi Fish...........and the list goes on and on. Swine are invasive species brought by Spaniards hundreds of years ago. Now they've gone "hog wild" so to speak, and cause millions in damage every year.
