Nutria also breed rapidly: Females first become pregnant around six months old, and can have four litters a year of between six and 12 pups per litter. Add that to the fact that, as a South American import, the nutria have no natural predators in the area, and the region has one troublesome rodent species on its hands.
The nutria (Myocastor coypus) is a large, dark-colored, semiaquatic rodent. They have short legs and a robust, highly arched body that is approximately 24 inches (61 cm) long. Their round tail is 13 to 16 inches (33 to 41 cm) long and scantily haired.
