Cavies are natives of South America.

Smallholder farmers, especially women, keep domestic cavies in their homesteads that may provide more protein to family nutrition than any other meat source.

Many cavies are promiscuous, forming no long-lasting social groups, although, in some species, males maintain harems of two or more females.

They are carnivorous, feeding on small mammals, such as cavies, ground-dwelling birds, small lizards, and snakes.

The genus Kerodon contains two species of South American rock cavies related to capybaras.

The capybara and the lesser capybara belong to the subfamily Hydrochoerinae along with the rock cavies.

Traditionally the genus Kerodon has been considered a member of the subfamily Caviinae along with the guinea pigs and other cavies.

Family Caviidae: cavies and capybara (South America)

Caviinae is a subfamily uniting all living members of the family Caviidae with the exception of the maras, capybaras and Kerodon.

The family is probably ancestral to the living family Caviidae (Kramarz, 2006), which includes cavies, maras, and capybaras and their relatives.

Molecular results have consistently suggested that Hydrochoerus is most closely related to Kerodon (the rock cavies), and that the two evolved from within the Caviidae.

Recent molecular phylogenetic studies recognize a close relationship between Hydrochoerus and Kerodon, supporting placement of both genera in a subfamily of Caviidae.

Hydrochoerinae is a subfamily of Caviidae, consisting of two living genera, Hydrochoerus, the capybaras, and Kerodon, the rock cavies.
