Save it from what?

The animals of the earth have been using the enviornment for their benefit for millions and
millions of years.

I think it is ironic that the only habitat that seems to be available
for these animals is the golf course, perhaps the most unnatural plot
of land you can have.
Why don't these wild life lovers get up off their wallets and buy land
for wildlife preservation? If the golfers were not there, this would
just be part of the concrete jungle and the beavers would die.
I see these PETA and humane society weasels bitching about hunters but
hunters do far more to protect natural wildlife populations, preserve
habitat and actually set aside land than all the Volvo driving bark
eaters combined.

Maybe the armchair environmentalists should look at what we are doing
in Southwest Florida. The voters decided to create funds to buy up
habitat and put it in preservation., This wasn't a unilateral decision
by government or a "taking" of private property, it was a referendum
that created a dedicated taxing district for the purpose. Properties
are bought at market price, not stolen in eminent domain robberies.

There *is* a perfect habitat for the suckers, damn near across the street.

Put 'Huntley Meadows Park, Alexandria, VA' into Mapquest. Look just north - that's the golf course.
The park has all kinds of trees and water. But, the folks are not allowed to trap the beaver.

Stupid.

I guess my question would be... were the beavers in the area before the golf course was built??

Never heard of the Nature Conservancy? They do exactly this sort of
thing and have been doing it for a long time. Too ****ing bad there's
a beaver on your golf course. Too ****ing bad.

Equating PETA with the Humane Society is complete and total bull****,
nothing new from the likes of you.

The Nature Conservance is a corrupt organization.

PETA is the largest killer of cats and dogs in Virginia.

Neither of these organizations is worth of anyone's time, effort or money.

There are also Nature Conservancy lands that allow hunting.

It's a joke, lighten up

My environmental credentials are sound.

Kevin? He's still around?

Anyway, I think your idea is sound. But, I tried eating a groundhog once. Didn't work. I'm thinking
beavers would be about the same. Tougher'n hell.
