I read today there is a population of approx 37,000 Nilgai in the state of Texas that are currently running wild... Now that is being somewhat kept in check by hunters and invasive species management. Imagine them going unchecked.
Nutria (aka swamp rats) also seem to be growing in numbers, they are good for their fur and now their meat... Cajun cooking? Swamp Rat Gumbo anyone?
I was in Victoria TX once years ago and had swamp rat tacos at a Vietnamese hole in the wall.. Actually not bad...
