I actually know quite a bit about them after finding what I thought was a brown guinea pig squashed by a car many years ago...discovered it was the same creature that made ankle breaking holes all over the woods that isn't really any sort of beaver at all....as for rare well not in these parts and it seems you knew that so why would you think taxi's in this area where they are not rare would be interested?
I actually am kinda curious your thought process on that because it doesn't make much sense...now had you posted that same info on say hunting texas it might make more sense.....I can go behind my house and get a mt beaver if I really wanted one stupid things have a colony out back.....I've also got voles coming out my ears darned destructive creatures that when called a pocket gopher is supposedly rare as well....I wish it was extinct...

Runamuk,

This is a taxidermy sub-forum, and there is a fairly good market for mounted museum specimens.

I have sold critters through other national and worldwide forums in the past, and it's a big hassle freezing and shipping them, dealing with paypal, etc.
I thought I'd try to keep the local economy going.

This is the world wide web so I came at it from a global perspective (like the other sites I am used to doing this type of a thing on).

That, was my thought process. ;)

....And I didn't expect this to be dragged into the gutter with sexual inuendos. :o
But as they say, there's no such thing as bad publicity.

I won't bother to debate the differences between the Mazama pocket gopher, indigenous to western Washington, and the common vole, as I have had just about enough of this.

I've now made 5 more posts than I ever should have.

No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and Virtue is preserved. On the Contrary, when People are universally ignorant, and debauched in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the Aid of foreign Invaders.

The only one I have ever seen is when I take the wife hiking in the mountains. :drool:
It's better to have a gun and not need it than to need one and not have it.                                                                             Local 66 sheetmetal workers

I have them all over by my place.  One night a buddy and I were almost to my house and one was running up the road.  I told him "I think the neighbors hamster got out, grab it"  he bailed otu of the truck and was about to grab it and I told him NO!  If he would have grabbed that thing I bet ya it would have drawn blood!   He was mad when I told him what it was.   :chuckle:

All I could picture was Jeff Foxworthy talking about how a beaver bit his nipple off.  O-F-F.
