Another assault on one of our National Symbols

The article states : "The traps are legal and humane"

maybe legal because our system sucks but humane ? There's nothing humane about those traps

Nice Mayor

Oshawa Mayor John Gray doesn’t see any alternative to lethal trapping. “No one likes killing wildlife, but what are you going to do?” he said. “You’ve got to get rid of the critters.”

I was watching about the Beavers on the news the other day

There was a guy whose dog had been attacked by the beaver. I thought he was being quite sensible when he wasn't blaming the Beaver. I heard they had young ones. Then the guy said the dog will just have to get along with the Beaver. Is he nuts.

Keep your dogs away from there. They don't have to go in the water there. What is the matter with people.

Has anyone considered the cheap and easy solution of posting signs along the water during kit season warning owners of the possible conflicts? Seems like it might be worth a try, anyway.

I mentioned the Oshawa Beavers in one of L4H's thread's,I am outraged at them calling these traps"humane",they either break the Beavers back or trap it's legs so it drowns.it's like a giant mouse-trap.
I am soooo angry with the Ministry of Natural Resources they do nothing but kill our wildlife,it's not the first time they go on a killing-spree
What the heck are they good for

These by the way are not the same Beavers that killed the dog..
