The nutria (Myocastor coypus) is a medium-sized, semi-aquatic rodent valued by the skin and meat industry. Although it originated from South America, due to escapes and releases from fur farms there are now large feral populations in North America, Europe and Asia. The cranial study helps in the identification of the right taxonomy.
