		It is the only species in the genus Myocastor and is sometimes given its own family: Myocastoridae.

		A combination of 100 mg/ml of ketamine hydrochloride (Ket) and 20 mg/ml of xylazine hydrochloride (Xyl) was used to immobilize coypus (Myocastor coypus).
		Eight mature coypus (four males and four females) were injected intramuscularly with doses ranging from 2.33 to 6.25 mg/kg of KET and 0.25 to 0.86 mg/kg of Xyl.

	Nutria
		Besides accelerating coastal land loss, this exotic species is also responsible for the decline of the muskrat, a species native to the Gulf Coastal Plain.
		Nutria, Myocastor coypus, are large South American rodents that have a stocky body, short neck, webbed feet and inch-long, dark orange incisors.
		Known in some places as "swamp beavers," these semi-aquatic rodents are found in a variety of wetland habitats, ranging from marsh (salt, brackish, intermediate and fresh) to freshwater forested wetlands.

	THE EFFECT OF NUTRIA (MYOCASTOR COYPUS) ON MARSH LOSS IN THE LOWER EASTERN SHORE OF MARYLAND: AN EXCLOSURE STUDY
		Abstract: Introduced in the 1940's to bolster Maryland's Eastern Shore fur industry, the South American nutria (Myocastor coypus) has been implicated in the loss of emergent marsh, especially that dominated by Olney 3-square (Scirpus olneyi) along the Blackwater River in Dorchester County.
		Nutria are basically herbivorous and marsh loss has coincided with the introduction and expansion of the population.
		Large 30m x 30m exclosures will eliminate foraging pressure by nutria and measure the ability of the vegetation to recover.

	Coypu, Coypu, Coypu!
		They're just trimmed differently; same head, different haircuts.
		By now you're probably wondering what a coypu is. I know I wondered about it myself when I first saw the word so I looked it up in an encyclopedia, where I learned the following: Coypu (myocastor coypus) is also called nutria.
		In the accompanying photo it looks to my eyes like a cross between a woodchuck and a rat.
