Nutria used to be prized for their fur, maybe someone could start making locally made fur coats..... I hear retro is in!

actually I was joking when I said that I personally find fur coats unattractive and generally against the idea of it…. Except in this case, but I like the idea of dog food better though.

I figured you were joking!

Me too, really. It's just that when I read your post I remembered I'd seen something about nutria fur being promoted as "sustainable" so I just had to Google it!

I wonder if nutria taste good and are safe to eat...?

so here is an organization promoting human consumption of invasive species. If were going to kill them off, might as well make the most of it. This I agree with...

Nutria taste test.

The slight garlic and cayenne flavors percolated on the tongue, but were quickly overwhelmed by a taste we have to describe as the flavor of the “swamp”. One of us thought it tasted like a morgue, while another tasted a hint of walnuts. You’re definitely in unique flavor country here as the true taste of the nutria meat really came out, for a perplexing culinary experience.

Then we should arrange the carrots in patterns.

Maybe a tower.

Spell out "no nutria here"?

Or arrange them into a 47

A friend of a friend eats nutria. I met him a few times, nice guy, very cool. Was on OFG a few times (field herpetology episodes). Anyway, we were talking and he started in about trapping and eating nutria and how awesome it was. I'll stick to flat-iron steaks, thanks...
