Decline in the United States

According to an article in Hakai Magazine, from April 2024, the muskrat populations have declined by at least one-half in 34 US states. The collapse was near-total, between 90 and 99 percent in a handful of states. Rhode Island's muskrat populations are estimated to be roughly 15 percent of what they were several decades ago.The decline in muskrat populations, which demands immediate attention, began in the 1990s and early 2000s.
