Sounds like hunting is needed. Or a lot of giant Burmese pythons.
Please, no. last time that happened, we brought Nutria here to eat the water lillies that were clogging up everything and taking over and those critters LOVED the hyacinths and Louisiana now we have to find a critter that likes to eat nuttria!
Pythons might eat nutria.
I heard they are good eating, and with the price of beef....
I remember the 1950s when raising nutria for fur was the rage. Then the market collapsed and people let them go in the wild.
Much like the Emus.

Back in the 1950-60s, the power plant on a small lake in West Oak Cliff (Dallas) and Grand Prairie TX had intake and discharge channels being clogged with water plants. Some nutria were introduced to eat the plants and they multiplied quickly. In nice weather, the workers at the power plant would take their lunches and rifles out onto the grassy slope overlooking the channels and shoot the nutria.
Feral hogs and nutria should both be legal to shoot anywhere, but especially in States with heavy populations of either.
