We have to get into a lottery to get a permit to trap beaver in NJ. My son and I applied for the permit this year for the first time - no luck though. Only 2 permits are issued in our zone, which I just did a quick and dirty estimate of about 160,000 acres. A permit allows 8 beaver to be harvested. There aren't a lot of beaver around but harvesting 1 beaver per 10,000 acres doesn't seem like much.

I never would have even imagined that they would do that, here some counties are paying to get them trapped. Pretty hard to take, since most people that pull the tags either don't even use them or get only 1 0r 2 out of the allowable 8.

We've got so many nuisance beaver in the Northern Zone in New York State that they cancelled the 1st week of muskrat trapping season to try and force muskrat trappers to trap beaver.
You can come up here and trap beaver & otter with no bag limits.
Come catch as many as you want.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Nope, walleyed will never again trap fall beaver in protest of the State and NYSTA cancelling a week of our muskrat trapping season in an imbecilic attempt to force muskrat trappers to trap beaver while muskrat trapping. Only spring beaver for me from here on out. walleyed

If not, you can bet ARs will be applying spoiling a true trapper's chance of ever getting one.
