Beaver Pics.

Caught these 2 on the farm & the muskrat got in a beaver set.
This one was 53 pounds.

This one was 32 pounds.

The daughter said she wanted another pet I said here I don't have to worry about telling you to feed & water this one.

Dang Rob!!
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

That is pretty big.

I saw one trying to work his way onto some ice 40 years ago, he couldn't do it, that had a head as big as a Terriers.  Muskrat are very tasty animals.
