Brings to mind BOB WILLS and the TEXAS PLAYBOYS instrumental BIG BEAVER.

I have a FRiend who wanted to start a liqueur store over on Beaver Lake and call it Beaver Lickers. His thread, on FR, was pulled, but BOY what comments before the pull.

Beavers have been known to fell some pretty big trees

Jerry Mathers? Nah, he is around. Was out of TV
until about middle age. Did a reunion episode and
cheesy updated versions where he played Beav as a
dad. Ken Osmond (Eddie H)is a real life good guy
,,,,,a cop and a conservative.

I've witnessed retarded touri's in YNP hanging out with the bears and "Buffalo" at extremely close range near the raods (typically blocking traffic too).

It's amazing that more are not killed/maimed /yr.

It's really unbelievable.

Quick! Somebody add it to the Obamacare Diagnostic Codes List:

146,944. Walking into a lamppost
146,945. Injuries sustained from burning water skis
146,946. Laceration of a major artery caused by razor-sharp beaver teeth

Dave Barry once speculated on what it would have been like for a real boy to have to grow up being known to everyone around him as “the Beaver”.

Then there was President Merkin Mufflin dealing with imminent thermonuclear war in “Dr. Strangelove”.

Years ago I had a summer job at a National park that always had bears roaming around looking for handouts from the tourists. It was not unusual to have a bunch of vehicles stopped along the road messing around with bears. Some people were even stupid enough to have fully grown wild bears standing up on hind legs to take photos. In some cases people would actually push the bear away from the camera to get a photo. Tourists can be very dumb as to dangers. Though I never heard of or saw one of these roadside incidents turn ugly/harmful I do know that in the same park a man had his chest ripped open when the man chased a couple of bear cubs away from the families picnic table after dark and mama bear got angry and waylaid him.

No hunting = no fear of humans.

I would HATE to get chomped by a Beaver.

Say, this would make a great horror film. I wonder if it has been done yet. Ah of course... Everything has been done.

Still, it would be a great horror film. Beaver vs beaver — a crazed 200 lb angry mental beaver animal loose in a girls college dormitory on a dark and stormy Halloween night.

Beaver vs beaver.

Nom nom nom.
