Vette(s): 1982 C3 Collectors Edition 44000 miles, sat in the sun most of its life, My wife purchased it for me for Father's Day in 2007 from her girlfriend that had it for 19 years. It is on the road again. I'm retired but it is now my daily driver.
Stand by my statement find an active dam take it apart a little and backup and wait then you will see the furry things.  Other than that go to the zoo.  Not many in the zoos either by the way.  Wood chucks that is a different story.  Anybody ever eat a wood chuck?  They look like they have a little meat on them?

Thumbs Down WAY to many in this neck of the woods. Can't get rid of em. Floodin roads, lawns, fields. Just a general problem. We have a season on them. They make a FINE fur coat, and are a source of a nice bounty to fur dealers.

Vette(s): 1982 Black, ZZ4, Hooker Side Pipes, 3.55 Rear, Rebuilt & upgraded 700R4, All new suspension, brakes, & new Charcoal interior.

My Father-in-Law & I built a house on the shore of a small lake here in Jersey and there was a beaver dam on the shore about 50 feet from the house. We used to sit at the end of the day and watch them for hours, really cool. They had a whole family in there. They helped us clear the property, LOL.

We have a place in Northern Michigan. There is a beaver hut close by. Whenever we get in the area we look for em, and once in a while you can spot em, but the critters are pretty shy.

Its just a short trip from Cali Jim. Come on up. Your welcome to stay anytime.

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.
Now Rex he was a Texan out of New Orleans And he travelled with the carnival shows. He ran bumper cars, sucked cheap cigars And he candied up his nose.
He got wind of the big brown beaver So he though he'd take himself a peek, [ But the beaver was quick and he grabbed him by the kiwis Now he ain't pi$$ed for a week.
Now Wynona took her big brown beaver, And she stuck him up in the air. Said I sure do love this big brown beaver And I wish I did have a pair. Now the beaver once slept for seven days And it gave us all an awful fright. So I tickled his chin and I gave him a pinch And the basterd tried to bite me. Wynona loved her big brown beaver And she stroked him all the time. She pricked her finger one day and it occurred to her
She might have a porcupine.
