sidewinder Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Should be interesting to see how they get on. It's the wimpy 'non-American' variety. UK Beavers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porcy62 Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Maybe it's out topic, or continent, but when I visited Canada I have been in dozens of places called 'Beaver Creek', 'Beaver Cove', ecc, never saw a beaver! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzmoose Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 The UK went along without beavers for 500 years???? That explains a lot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted October 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Looks like these imported beavers are German. Another Saxon invasion ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron S Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Just be sure that they don't start introducing the American Beaver: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcello Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 ".....and the beavers could also help keep waterways clear of debris." Actually they build dams that block streams and creeks that cause flooding. In New York State they are happy to provide permits to "trap" beavers that cause blockages. Those traps are set out and then checked two weeks later. Usually, in those two weeks, those beavers either drown or starve to death. It's a way that the State uses to avoid the stigma of shooting ( thus outright killing ) beavers. If people think they are just trapped, it's humane.
