The biggest rodent in the world is Kaphibara or it has a scientific name, Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris. It is about 2 feet (60 cm) tall at its shoulders, making it the largest living rodent on Earth.

Capybaras are larger than their living relatives, cavies, and guinea pigs. It can be found on land or wallowing in water, where it can swim on its slightly webbed feet. This very large rodent comes from South America.

Reaching lengths of up to 4 feet (1.2 m) and weighing more than 500 lbs. (227 kg), the largest living bivalve mollusk is the giant clam (Tridacna gigas).

The goliath frog or Conraua goliath can grow to be longer than a foot (32 cm) and can weigh more than 7 lbs (3.3 kg). This makes it the largest frog. The Goliath frog is a champion jumper, capable of leaping nearly 10 feet (3 m) forward. 

One arthropod species that can claim the title of largest by size: the Japanese spider crab (Macrocheira kaempferi).

The largest Japanese spider crab ever recorded had a leg span of 12.5 feet (3.8 m), said James Lamsdell, assistant professor in the Department of Geology and Geography at the University of West Virginia.

The old ones can reach a body length of a little over a meter, although [fishing] generally doesn't let them get that old.

Architeuthis dux is the largest cephalopod, a group that includes the squid, octopus, cuttlefish, and nautilus. Researchers determined the squid's length by measuring the creature's mantle (body length).

A. dux's mantle is more than 6.6 feet (2 m) long, but the animal's tentacles give the squid a total length of 59 feet (18 m), said Michael Vecchione, curator of squid at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C.
