The three times that what are called beaver are shown, the pictures are of nutria or coypu. The white muzzles and whiskers give them away, as the beaver has a black muzzle and whiskers. The size of the nutrias in Oregon has decreased a great deal over the last half-century. There were probably several subspecies of them introduced from their native South America and a larger strain may have established itself first and then smaller subspecies won out over time. In 1967, I found a nutria that had just been killed by a dog near the Willamette River. Using my salmon scales, I found that it weighed 77 pounds. The nutria that I have been seeing over the years since, have been much smaller and tend to be less blackish and more brownish in color than those very large ones of the past.

But those early people didn't war against the people already here. They traded with them, and traveled without conflict. Even today there are people who can travel the world, no problems. Then there are those who are so ignorant they can't go across town without having issues with people.
