Hi Claire, thank you for your report of the nutria. Unfortunatly, nutria are an invasive species that have become so widespread and established that it would be virtually impossible to eradicate them from Oregon. They are what we consider an established invasive species. Therefore, it's not necessary to report sightings of nutria, however, we do, nevertheless, appreciate your report, and your watchful eye for invasive species.
