Nutrias are big but I think capybaras are the 200-pounders they're talking about in the article. Biggest rodents in the world, IIRC.

...some of which can tip the scales at nearly 200 pounds

About the size of your average Senator.

This man has, simmered in a nice sauce piquant. Tasted like chicken.

Ah nutria -- the hot new item on Louisiana menus.

It does not taste like chicken. No, it defintely do not.

I was Bass fishing last spring at Lake Fork, Texas. It was right at dusk when I made a cast into some weeds and hooked something. I pulled and it didn't move. I though I was snagged on a submerged log until it started to pull back--

Right out of the water and up the bank...

My buddy grabbed a flashlight and pointed it my taunt line. He followed my line up to a dark mass moving away into the brush. There went the biggest darned nutria I ever saw and about 30 yards of my line.
