Nutria Removal and Trapping
Nutria Removal Services
Nutria or coypu, are often confused with the muskrat, however nutrias are larger and have round tails. Nutrias are easily identified by a white patch of hair around their mouths as well as by their bright orange teeth. Like other semi-aquatic animals, nutrias are often brown, and their fur was once highly sought after. The nose and mouth of the nutria can be closed off while swimming underwater to prevent liquid intake.
