LOL....how true! No, I've heard the same things in our area. 18-24 for beavers, but they're thinking 8-9 for rats! Only bad thing is I don't have a lot of rats but beavers have sprung up everywhere the past couple of years. It seems that no one is trapping them due to some past stingy regulations in PA and the low costs.
In certain WMU's this year the regulations on methods has loosened up because there are so many problems with them. I thought it could be just another thing to do after Christmas to take up the winter boredom.
