The Beaver was identified as Harry Beaver. The cause of death was hit and run!

I'd guess about half the population keeps beavers close to them...

Taken from Ammunition Depot website, that jacketed hollow point should expand, it looks mean too. I'm prejudiced against a .357, just a .38 special with a little steroid. Product detailsPMC Starfire ammo features a unique hollow point
design, intended to expand quickly after impact. These rounds feature a
patented "rib-and-flute" expanding projectile, which allows the bullet
to bloom to close to double its width at full expansion. Starfire rounds
are intended to penetrate and stop inside the target, ideally expending
100 percent of the cartridge's energy for the best knockdown power
possible. When combined with the advanced hollow point design, this
makes for an effective self defense .357 Magnum cartridge.

Thursday, 12 July 2012Regarding your dam complaint![]() In December of 1997, as a result of an official complaint from a neighbour, a Michigan resident named Stephen Tvedten received, indirectly, a stern warning from the region's Department of Environmental Quality in the form of a letter—a letter in which he was given six weeks to remove two "unauthorized" and "hazardous" dams from the stream on his property, or else face prosecution. Tvedten’s amusing response, in which he makes a mockery of the complaint and refuses to comply on behalf of the beavers who built those dams, soon made the local news. The case was quickly dropped. This letter, along with 124 other fascinating pieces of correspondence, can be found in the bestselling book, Letters of Note. For more info, visit Books of Note. STATE OF MICHIGAN |

Tom you should have used a .357 kryptonite semi jacketed hollow point on that beaver for a one shot kill. That was Superman's gal, and he's pissed. You better load up on Kryptonite.

My 9mm. loaded with Speer Gold Dot 124 grain bullets dropped a cow with one head shot from 15 feet. I question what bullet you are shooting out of your .357? As for Beavers,they have been a problem in our county flooding roads, raising water levels at Lakeshore homes. County Road Commission had to clean a road culvert 4 times because a Beaver kept damning it up. Unfortunately for the Beaver a car hit him while he was crossing the road! Damn Beavers!

Joanne Crawford, a wildlife ecologist at Southern Illinois University told National Geographic. "I’m like, 'Get down there, and stick your nose near its bum.'"
"People think I'm nuts," she added. "I tell them, 'Oh, but it's beavers; it smells really good.'" And

If you are only six feet away, use a 12 ga. with a slug to the head. It won't survive that! BTW, they call that shaved beaver a Brazilian now adays!!

Thanks for all the replies and tips. I have enjoyed reading them today and still tore up over the sinfully smooth shaved beaver. Tim I am sorry being in NC I have no resources on preparing the beaver. I did get a friend who was in taxidermy school to try to fix me a pelt. I still have it but it’s hard as a rock and he swore never to do one again. What I am using is some snare traps suspended by a dog chain stretched across the spillway. The beaver last night ruined three traps and if I remember correctly they were around $15 a piece. The ones last year I killed I shot with 1911 .45acp and mostly one head shot would do the trick. Considering my shots are about six feet away I am surprised at the .357 but I am more surprised the body shots didn’t phase it. Which I realize he was pumped up on adrenaline from being trapped and then me shining a light on him. I like the .44 idea and yes it would make a good Christmas present.

Not a fan of the .357, friend of mine called them, eargasplitting loud boomers. They have a very irritating sound and I would much prefer a 45 Long Colt or a 44mag. Now, if you don't have either, it is Christmas time.
