[parfleche]

Too much emphasise is placed on the ability of beaver in baiting bear,I sell mine at .51 cents a lb, and figure that is reasonable, The problem is some want it kept for them for days , and then don,t show up to pick them up, I live in town and I,m not starting to plug in freezers to keep dead carcasses.
Looking at it from another point of view,
Say you have to go catch ONE Beaver
assuming 50 km round trip
price of gas
time spent initial setting of trap
time spent going to check said trap
Maybe you caught one maybe not
But you guarrantee two trips to finalize
time spent preparing hide,
cost of shipping to auction
price realised when sold likely $12.00 average was $19.00?
Where was the money made?
Why is the price of .51 cents a lbs too much?
This is looking at it from the same perspective of a $50.000 trapline: sHa_sarcasticlol:
Then you can get lucky and go get your own , , But I don,t believe it is legal to use unskinned Beaver for bait, IF it is , IT,s darned unethical IMO.
