When I grabbed the cable to pull up the trap I knew I had a bigger than average beaver. I didn't think it would be a 72 pounder! Biggest beaver I have ever caught. Its hard to tell from the pic how massive she was. Her belly looked like she swallowed a beach ball and her head looked like a small pumpkin. I also caught a 56 pound female on the trip and it was noticeably smaller. My best trap check for the 10 days I had trap set was 12 beaver. I don't know if I would want to deal with any more than that in a day.
