There is a new rat coming to town and it doesn’t take “no” very well. This rat can grow as large as 9 kg, has huge bucked teeth and are a dangerous invasive species that are breeding in massive numbers all along the coast. The nutria or coypu is a large, herbivorous and a semiaquatic rodent. It is a member of the spiny rat family. Originally, they were native to subtropical and temperate South America. Just one Nutria female can produce over a couple hundred babies a year. As with most rats, given the proper environment, they can breed at a swift pace and this seems to be happening all the way up the West Coast. These rodents are known for their devastating destruction on agricultural, environmental damage and the destruction they can inflict on our infrastructure. These rodents use to be a immense commodity in the fur trading industry in South America.
