Previously native - so read non native - animals out weigh trees Nev. But they don't pack as much weight as the humble badger. But cows are bad. Unless they were cape buffalo introduced to roam the Norfolk broads in which case cows would be good. My little one has more logic than the gob ****es that make all the fuss!

I will not be off out to massacre there entire species but just cull there numbers to lower the damage caused (HOPEFULLY) Just out of curiosity, since Beaver were introduced to Ham Fen, what are there estimated local population?

Michael Richardson Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 You require a licence to take beavers, application can be made through the dot gov website. Be prepared to answer a lot of questions on the form. I would also run it past your FEO as vermin condition might not cover beavers It suggests using a trap then humane dispatch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
