Disappearing cities of Metro Detroit: Wyandotte, Michigan

It all started here.

The New York Times, 4/1/1988

Muskrat eating is deeply ingrained in the customs of the swampy region along the Detroit River between the Motor City and Toledo, Ohio. According to historians, the roots extend all the way back to Detroit's founding in 1701 by Antoine de La Mothe Cadillac as a French fur trading post on a narrow part of the Great Lakes waterway. He named it La Ville d'Etroit, the city on the strait, later anglicized to Detroit. Settlers lived off the land then and muskrat was one of the few sources of meat in winter.
