How is a groundhog different from a nutria?

Nutria are semi aquatic while groundhogs are terrestrial. Physically, nutria have webbed rear feet and a mostly hairless, long rounded tail while a groundhog has a furry tail and his feet are not webbed. Nutria also have more prominent whiskers than a groundhog and a whitish chin. if you can get a look at the animal's incisors, orange to reddish incisors are characteristic for nutria. Nutria can be distinguished from muskrats by their size (nutria are larger) and their tails. The hairless tail of a muskrat is laterally compressed (thinner from side-to-side than it is top dorsal to ventral) while the tail of the nutria is fully round.
