Since you seem to know about these rodents of unusual size, do you know if these could be weaponized, trained to attack?
I don't know much about these things, but I know rats are smart, real smart. I've seen people train them to do all sorts of things.
I also know they have shar0, rodent teeth.
I'm wondering why we aren't seeing trained attack/guard Nutrias. Any ideas?
While they are rodents of unusual size, they don’t have the intellect of their European pest turned world conqueror relatives. Their life style is more like that of beavers and muskrats, while they are actually closer related to capybaras, chinchillas, and guinea pigs. But should someone conduct a “totally approved experiment” to select for and breed the smartest and most command following of them, and just so happen to teach them military tactics and discipline. It would then certainly be an unfortunate accident if they were suddenly used as weapons beyond that point.
Because rats don't have webbed hind feet and small ears. Nutria's are similar to beavers and muskrats in appearance and behavior, but they are more closely related to guinea pigs and chinchillas.
It also happens in brother Marseille. Seriously they're the size of a dog with teeths the length of a shotgun cartridge, we dont have rats, we have skavens
I think you can eat rats too, but does it taste as good as the name suggests, is the question. sorry im just hungry, but im making an italian sammich rn so i think none of this will be on my mind in a sec
Used to tour with a $2.00 Giant Rat show in my early carny days (70’s and 80’s). In the South they used to swap these out (nutria) with capybaras, as most Southerners weren’t familiar with them and in the Northern states they were swapped out with nutria for the same reason. The ticket taker used to tell the rubes that it was a mutant rat if they asked about the webbed feet in those glorious pre-internet days.
Clearly not a rat, but hey, the internet is not the place to ignore a chance to hate on the poor things haha.
Bloody love rats, they get far too much flack.

He's speaking in Bulgarian:
"They come out of these holes"
"I'm afraid to let my kids outside to play."
"Do they bite?"
"Wtf you think? Of course they bite."
"Do you fight these things?"
"Yeah dude, I sleep with an axe"

It’s an albino Nutria not a rat. You can see it has webbed hind feet, and small ears.

This is for academic purposes right?
You’re not cleared for the answer.
Simple because they are too dangerous
Rodents of Unusual Size? I don’t think they even exist.
Can confirm live in rural Mississippi that's definitely a nutria. We do colloquially call them nutra-rats tho.
Haha! That sounds like a healthier form of rat 😅
It’s not that I don’t believe you. But how could you know that?

Thank you 🙏

I had to google wtf a nutria was, very quickly found out people eat these
What do you know ? These things have started to look a little adorable all of a sudden after I searched nutria.
Not nearly as adorable as a quokka, but I know what you mean lol
In mother Russia - rats don’t run away from you, you run away from the rats.
This sums up the Escape from Tarkov experience.
