I was raised in N. O. Louisiana, and lived in Houston TX until I moved to MD 18 years ago. Sorry, those dang nutria must have hitchhiked in my moving boxes. Seriously, though, they really can be a big problem. They originally came to the US from S.A.

The Nutria Are Here

So, they're illegal aliens. Or undocumented workers. Oh, wait...here in Blue Maryland, they're "New Americans."

Don't worry... the boa and pythons will eventually follow them up the coast.
