Is it just me or does the species name sound more like a microscopic animal? That’s what I’ve always thought.
Haha, probably.
Nasty little buggers who build their tunnels in dikes and dams. Which makes them a real threat at the current high waters. You are not allowed to feed them, but stupid people still do it. Just a few weeks ago they caught one who had spread a whole sack of carrots to feed them.
On another note: There is an offical hunter somewhere in the area who sells Nutria meat loaves.
I never knew these even existed. Thanks OP, you da bomb. (╭☞´ิ∀´ิ)╭☞
The singular is nutrium.
Pretty sure it’s nutria: https://www.britannica.com/animal/nutria ; anyway enjoy the nice creature!
It’s basic pluralization.
aquarium ➝ aquaria
bacterium ➝ bacteria
millennium ➝ millennia
nutrium ➝ nutria
