: The nutria was introduced into the wild in Israel during the 1950s and is currently considered a pest. Culling efforts are managed by the KKL-JNF, the managing organization of the Agmon Hula Park. We collected nutria that were culled during 2013–2015 and did not initiate culling. No permits are needed for collecting nutrias since they are not protected by the Israeli law.
