Nutria, or coypu, can cause significant ecological and economic problems. They damage wetland ecosystems by overgrazing vegetation, leading to soil erosion and loss of habitat for native species. Additionally, nutria can compromise agricultural lands by consuming crops and damaging irrigation systems. Their burrowing habits can also weaken levees and flood control structures, increasing the risk of flooding.
Nutria that escaped from farms and that were abandoned are creating havoc in the Florida Everglades.
A nutria is actually an animal. A nutria is actually an animal.
Nutria do not hibernate
nutria i think are large rats/rodents i think

Here is one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutria Not native to Louisiana and is causing quite a few problems
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.
it is a herbivorous
Nutria, but the french call the nutria meat ragondin.
Nutria, or coypu, can have several negative effects on their environment. They are known to cause significant damage to wetlands and marshes by overgrazing vegetation, which can lead to soil erosion and loss of habitat for native species. Additionally, their burrowing activities can undermine levees and flood control structures, increasing the risk of flooding. Furthermore, nutria can compete with native wildlife for resources, disrupting local ecosystems.
