With whole beaver carcasses, I notice that canines will eat out the liver area first or at least a majority of the time. Not asking anyone to share their lure-making secrets, but has anyone had any luck with using ground and preserved beaver liver for a lure? I am thinking more of a paste consistency for ease of application... Any additives to the liver that I should consider/test other than the preservatives? Thank you in advance for any help and/or insight. Last edited by Coyotero7; 08/29/24 03:06 PM. Sit with warriors. The conversation is different.

Mold was something that I hadn't considered an issue but I will definitely heed your advice... Sit with warriors. The conversation is different.
