Some of the best golfers in the world will not be making the trip to Rio for the 2016 Summer Games, as the fear of contracting the Zika virus was too much for them. For those competing in the event, they will have plenty of other things to worry about as they play their rounds, including rodents that can grow up to 150 pounds.

Golf is returning to the Olympics for the first time since 1904, and although the top four golfers in the world will not be attending, the field is still very competitive. On the actual course, in the Barra da Tijuca neighborhood of Rio, animals roam the grounds, with one strange creature called the capybara, being the most disturbing of them all.

The capybara is a rodent that can grow up to 150 pounds, and according to the National Post, the course is loaded with them. Below is a picture of these lovable critters.

Besides the giant rodents, the course is loaded with three-toed sloths, boa constrictors, and crocodiles. The course is very scenic and beautiful, but the golfers will need to be on the lookout at every turn. Golfers are used to watching out for alligators and such when they play in Florida, but the animals on this course are on a whole other level.

Olympic golf will tee it up on August 11, with the first round of the Men’s event. Bubba Watson, the fifth ranked player in the world, will head a field that should be very competitive. The men will play four rounds, culminating on August 14. The Women’s event will begin on August 17, and will run until the 20th.
