So what do you do with it?

Tan it.  Make a garment out of it.  Meat is outstanding bobcat bait.  Sell the fur.

Very nice.  How do you keep catching these big boys?  Hopefully you did not have to drag it to far.  (that would make a nice skull)  I have a small beaver skull,  unique bone structure.  I think it the Zygoma that is oversized.

The biggest hoops I have wont stretch a real big beaver. 40" hoops are the biggest I've been able to find. Most all beaver over 50 lbs wont fit on a 40" hoop. I'm thinking about making some that will stretch out to 48".

Awesome :tup: I'm beginning to get a strong urge to start trapping again. I havn't done it since high school, and really had no desire to do it without leg hold traps.
 Got my trapper card when I was 14-15 yrs old back in 84-85. Wdf should still have record of that shouldn't they?

Yes they should. If you ever had a trapping license for sure they will have a record of that.
