The Mysterious Orange Teeth

At the ranch during the last visit Amanda's kids found the strangest skull -it had long, gross orange teeth.  After a little exploration, we discovered it is from a Nutria - a large rodent that lives near water and builds dams.  I'm always amazed at first: what those kids find out there and second:  what actually lives along the Guadalupe river.  First it was the chupacobra and now a nutria.   I'm beginning to wonder if I really want to visit the ranch too often.  Who knows what else we'll find.

Here a picture of the large rodent - not from the ranch, but from the internet

You can see how those orange teeth make it easy to identify if you know what to look for.
