NUTRIA Invasive Species

I took some photos of a dead Nutria on the road near the slough at Pot of Gold corner.  This is an invasive species from South America and can wreak havoc in ponds and agricultural fields.  (It’s a vegetarian.). The Provincial government asks that sightings be reported.  Nutria look like a very large and well fed rat with a face somewhat like a guinea pig and a long, very thick tail.  
This is the provincial link for a description and info on how to report:
