HarryPANELIST
So you think they reside in specific areas of the country?
Adam CarollaGUEST
Like Nutria, yeah.
Adam CarollaGUEST
Yeah, because I'm from a place that's built in 1971, and there's no old church or old graveyard or anything.
Adam CarollaGUEST
It's just new stucco aluminum windows, flat roofs, and no ghost.
Jake RoweHOST
I would love to hear some ideas on on.
Jake RoweHOST
I mean, other than incentivizing people like they did without they did and maybe still do down in Louisiana with the Nutria and the.
Jake RoweHOST
and the muskrats i don't know how basically paying people for pelts i i just don't understand how we're we can do a better job of encouraging people to trap and getting more people to trap and manage it that way
Donald Devereaux JarrettGUEST
i agree uh that is that is a problem uh you know the bounties are down so low there's it's not worth your time to go kill a coyote and clean it and do the take care of the hide and send it off to get 15 20 bucks whatever it is i don't know um The thing that, like take Creston, South Dakota.
Chip CarlisleHOST
Yeah, that's what it is.
Chip CarlisleHOST
Nutria.
Chip CarlisleHOST
Yeah.
Chip CarlisleHOST
And, and people started making cowboy hats out of Nutria and they were not very expensive because of where they come from.
Chip CarlisleHOST
And all of a sudden people said, you know, these things are as nice as beaver, but they don't cost as much.
Chip CarlisleHOST
So now people are paying 80% of what a beaver hat would cost for a
Jason FryHOST
Nutria hat.
Jason FryHOST
Wow.
Ted PetersGUEST
One of my favorite examples of this was a case in Louisiana where I was able to get there within 24 hours of the experience and two guys in a boat in a bayou.
Ted PetersGUEST
were hunting nutria.
Ted PetersGUEST
Nutria is a kind of muskrat kind of animal, and they hunt at night, and they've got shotguns and things like that, and a putt-putt motor.
Ted PetersGUEST
And when I got there, they described this light.
Ted PetersGUEST
Oh, what is it? What kind of a light? Well, I don't know.
Rick TravisHOST
It's ugly head again.
Rick TravisHOST
And I mean, ugly head and it's called Nutria.
Rick TravisHOST
And I'm like, Nutria, what the heck is Nutria? And then I get told, well, it's like the biggest swamp rat you've ever seen.
Rick TravisHOST
And I'm like, well, how'd they get here? And that's what we're going to talk about because, uh, California is always trying to find a way to get a grip on some new way to make money.
Rick TravisHOST
And so, Steve, if you could explain to us what Nutria really are and how they got here, that would be really, I think, eye-opening for a lot of people here at the tailgate.
Steve ChildsGUEST
Okay.
Steve ChildsGUEST
Okay, so nutria are semi-aquatic rodents that are native to South America.
Rick TravisHOST
And...
Liam ErvineGUEST
I was like, yeah, cheers, mate.
Liam ErvineGUEST
But it was good though, because it's Nutria felt, so it dried out pretty quick.
Liam ErvineGUEST
So yeah, it's not like rabbit felt where it would have stayed fucking wet or it would have sunk in the fucking canal pretty quick.
Liam ErvineGUEST
Yeah.
Liam ErvineGUEST
Nutria being fucking a pretty water resistant animal that fucking made it float and be pretty fucking water resistant.
Liam ErvineGUEST
So yeah.
Harley FoxHOST
Oh, yeah.

Mark T CoxHOST
Hello.
Denis LenHOST
And Holly says, the public would like to know if you have any feelings about Nutria.
Denis LenHOST
Or Nutria? Or Nutria? Anyone heard of this? Nutria? Nutria? N-U-T-R-I-A? Another semi-aquatic pal in Prague.
Denis LenHOST
Vaguely beaver adjacent.
Mark T CoxHOST
Oh, are they the rats?
Denis LenHOST
They look exactly like, I mean, that's not far off a beaver, Mark.
Denis LenHOST
That's what we're going to be seeing.
Denis LenHOST
Well, I think you might be, this sounds like propaganda against the Nutria guys.
