RE: The nutria (Myocastor coypus) is invading Californian wetlands, and could cause havoc for this intricate ecosystem!
I haven't seen these in The Netherlands yet, but I hear they are around. I have seen many of the Ondatra zibethicus though, also invasive.
Yeah, they're supposed to be in The Netherlands. Ondatra zibethicus is also a very big trouble maker! These guys have spread to most of Europe and Asia already.
