NO, I don't mean Democrats. The WE is the Delta area around Stockton, CA. The giant rodents are called NUTRIA and they are real. They weigh about 20 pounds each and look like big-ass rats.
These things are voracious eaters and damage levees. Much of the Delta is protected by non-engineered levees over 100 years old. They are a serious danger to the levee system specifically and the ecosystem in general.
They invaded the Chesapeake Bay area early in this century but were successful eradicated over a period of about ten years by aggressive hunting and dogs trained specifically to sniff them out.
These things breed like rats and Fish and Game want very much to hear about sighting of these things in the Delta area.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Can George W. Bush be blamed for this? Or did Putin secretly ship these rodents over here? Still, better yet, did that sneaky little fat guy, Kim Jong-Un, do it?

Trump's fault.
Bob,
Nutria are all over Southeast Texas. They are generally harmless towards humans unless cornered. I have seen them as large as 35 pounds and once went on a call where one was trapped under a woman's car. Got it out with a broom and a water hose. There wasn't much left of the end of the broom. They are hunted for food in the South and some say the meat isn't bad. The meat can be compared to squirrel meat. They are not rats and a lot of times they are confused with Beavers. They are ugly with huge yellow teeth. I hope ya'll get rid of them.
I think it is the Macedonians personally. The main problem with them here, if I understand it correctly, is damage to the levees as well as crop depredation. Mostly levees.
