Never killed a Beaver, but there was this one time in Daytona I pounded one like a screen door in a hurricane.

What they needed was a star/celebrity. He would have grabbed the beaver with the beaver’s permission. CNN would then have given the grabbed beaver 24/7 coverage for at least a week.

Doesn’t matter how adorable a beaver is, somewhere some guy is sick of it.

That headline: a tale as old as time. If I’ve seen it once, I’ve seen it a thousand times.

Look on youtube. Beaver can be extremely dangerous to humans, no joke. An angry beaver is not to be messed with.

Now a .22 will turn angry beaver into pelt & meat for the pot, but they aren’t house pets.

Johnie Lad, Cock Up Your Beaver

When first my brave Johnie lad came to this town,
He had a blue bonnet that wanted the crown;
But now he has gotten a hat and a feather,
Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver!

Cock up your beaver, and cock it fu’ sprush,
We’ll over the border, and gie them a brush;
There’s somebody there we’ll teach better behaviour,
Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver!

Robert Burns, 1791
