I work with wildlife habitat restoration and creation every summer. There is not reference to the planting of these animals or any program to create a new population with transplantation. All it says is that they have been instinct for several hundred years.

This makes on sense to me. If this animal were spotted and the government had transplanted it there then there would have been an acknowledgment of its existence and a warning to leave them alone. This did not happen.

The second possibility is that the animal was never extinct. To believe that means that no one has seen a beaver in the UK in the last 500 years even though there were still breeding pairs in their waterways. Sorry, that does not hold water either.

Either there is much more to this story that we do not know or the story is simply not true.

Saw something the other day - don’t know whether Old movie, Old TV show BUT a Lady walked into the room with a fur coat on and the guy snickered “Good looking beaver” and she said Thanks but it is Mink”.

Sounds like the kind of line Mae West may have come up with OR W C Fields been involved in.
OR Blazing Saddles.

Ironically, on the South American archipelago of Tierra del Fuego, there are so many beavers destroying the place that an eradication project is in process.

“Wynona’s got herself a big brown beaver
and she shows it off to all her friends.
One day, you know, that beaver tried to leave her,
So she caged him up with cyclone fence.
Along came Lou with the old baboon
And said “Recognize that smell?”
“Smells like seven layers,
That beaver eats Taco Bell.”

yes Beaver is difficult to see in the dark. I always insist on a light source. Everybody wins.

Is it safe to open that link or should I refrain or use bleach as an eye wash after?
