Stroll through Strasbourg 1x PiP

Stroll through Strasbourg  1x PiP
Here a cheeky inhabitant from Strasbourg
The nutria, also called beaver rat, a rodent species originating from South America and naturalized in Central Europe.
Nutrias are sometimes confused with the muskrat, which originates from North America, but is smaller.
Nutrias have a body length of up to 65 cm and weigh between eight and ten kilograms, so they are smaller than a beaver. As with many animal species, male Nutrias are generally slightly larger than the females. On their hind feet they have webbed feet, very conspicuous in adult animals is the orange coloration of the rodent teeth, which is caused by iron deposition.
The original home of the Nutria living at rivers, lakes, ponds and in swamps is the subtropical and moderate South America.
Today, Nutrias are considered naturalized in large parts of North America and Eurasia.

With these not really popular city dwellers our Strasbourg walk comes to an end, nice that you are with me.
