Rat cake, rat sorbet, rat pudding, or strawberry tart.
Well, I’ll have a slice without so much rat in it.

Let people in CA (really) own guns and legalize all year hunting of them.

The 200+ pound Rat problem is the real threat.

In Mississippi they pay a $25 Bounty for Feral Hogs, or so I was told. I’m not sure who pays the $25 though.

The Venezuelans are hungry.

Catch them, butcher them, and add salt and pepper, and ship them off to Venezuela.

>> Store-bought, hunted or in a restaurant? <<

Probably more relevant:

Wild-caught, farmed, or plucked out of the polluted sewers of SoCal.

Give a $50 bounty on each Nutria turned in.

My Canadian wife told me a story about how her uncle went out camping with another fellow years ago. The fellow built a campfire, and told him whenever you see two little yellow lights, shoot at them. The next morning, they were surrounded by wolf carcasses, and turned in the ears for a $25 bounty.

Market dead nutria as the perfect fertilizer for cannibas plants.

Ignant Yankee here, but Isn’t the pork worth way more? Roadkill deer is a delicacy among some of my relatives.

You'd have to pay me a lot more than twenty-five bucks. Those are wily, dangerous critters.

Why the heck would you name it Nutria? It sounds like a sugar substitute, not an animal.
