Title: Will otter invade and active beaver den
Post by: hardkorrhunter on January 17, 2013, 04:10:20 PM: My pond has ten beaver in it with just the one den now three otter showed up and was wonderign if the otter will bother the beaver much? I just did my exam and am dying for that card to show up. Once the card is in my hand can i just go to any licensed dealer for my trapping license or do i have to get it through olympia?

If there really are 10 beaver I would bet money there is more then one den.
Do not get your license through Olympia. It will cost you an extra $105.
The Noob gave you some good advise.

And i had heard it was costly going through olympia but i read some where i had to. So any dealer works right? Sweet i seen in the regs it was only fourty one fifty. Well thanks for the advice guys probly saved me a pretty penny.
