Just saw my first beaver

Get your heads out of the gutter.
Driving home with my son from setting up a trail cam and driving by a marshy area and a big beaver watched us drive by and then slipped into the pond. Pretty cool. I'd say it was 70lbs but that was eyeballing it vs. my dog once I got home so that probably isn't accurate. If you have a trapping license and want the info, PM me.

O yes, I remember the first time I saw one. Beautiful big brown beaver. Named her Winona and dam I loved that beaver, feed her almost every night. Eventually that beaver just got too big and I had to find a new one to feed.
Sorry couldn't help myself.

First time I ever saw one I was so exited that I just had to squeeze a shot off but I didn't dare shoot at it knowing that could lead to a life of regret.

The very 1st beaver I harvested I shot it up multiple times! Glad no regrets came from it and it was a very beautiful beaver to.

Used to see them road killed all the time up in Northern Wisconsin. Kind of funny when you tell people you seen a road killed beaver.
