Pretty sure it's nutria: https://www.britannica.com/animal/nutria ; anyway enjoy the nice creature!
It's basic pluralization.
aquarium ➝ aquaria
bacterium ➝ bacteria
millennium ➝ millennia
nutrium ➝ nutria
Did you read the provided article?
Did you read a dictionary?
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/nutria
It says there, as well as in the Encyclopedia Britannica someone linked earlier, that "nutria" is the singular form.
That's clearly a mistake on their part that requires correction.
"did you read the dictionary" mfs when the dictionary disagrees with them (not all words are latinate in origin)
I guess not everyone can be as enlightened as me
