List of 4-syllable Animals that start with C

    1

    Capybara

    Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris

    The world's largest living rodent — a semi-aquatic South American herbivore the size of a large dog, famous for its docile temperament and remarkable tendency to be adopted as a companion by nearly every other animal it meets.

    2

    Cassowary

    Casuarius casuarius (Southern cassowary)

    The world's most dangerous bird — a large, flightless ratite of the New Guinea and Australian rainforest, armed with a dagger-like inner toe claw 12 cm long; females are larger than males and leave all parental duties to the father; the brilliant blue-and-red neck wattles serve as status signals.

    3

    Chameleon

    Chamaeleo chamaeleon (European chameleon); Furcifer pardalis (panther chameleon) and others

    The famous colour-changing lizard — chameleons change colour not primarily for camouflage but to communicate mood, temperature regulation, and social status; they have independently rotating eyes that provide 360-degree vision, a tongue that launches at 13 km/h to catch insects, and feet designed like tongs for gripping branches.
