The first pic is definitely a meerkat, the second is part of the guinea pig family, but I can't for the life of me remember it's name

I love the series made on the meerkat families; fascinating stuff....

Found it, had to google it as it was bugging me...

The capybara (Hydrochaeris) is the world's largest rodent - adults can measure up to 1.3m (4ft) long! These web-footed natives of South America are cousins to our lovable pet guinea pigs! The capybara inhabits marshes and dense vegetation around water. It has thin yellowish hair, swims well and can rest underwater with just ears, nose and eyes above the surface.
