You would think it is so crazy that they wouldn't, but Maj. Scott Staples of DNR enforcement stated that if they come across this, they will take appropriate enforcement action.
Staples himself is a trapper. An advocate for trappers and attends the conventions.
This is just as backroads archer allude to,.. a foot in the door. Just idiocy!

What did you expect Scott to say?

He's a good egg, good as they come

You're right, I'm not poking on Scott, it his responsibility to enforce. I am simply replying to Nessie.
It is a shame that it should even have gotten to a point that enforcement would even be necessary.

He is a good egg, and advocate. Again, not busting on him.

Guess you could just drop those dead beaver at the steps of the capitol and let them deal with it

How and who is going to know what you did with it after removing it from the trap other than the trapper ? Be another version of SSS. Also is there a biological difference between nuisance beaver and other beaver that enforcement could actually do a DNA test? So many ways around that asinine law.
I thought WA was bad with not being able to sell or barter or trade nuisance fur.

A stinking muddy half starved boney old nuisance beaver from a summer mosquito infested cesswamp is the last I would ever eat if I was starving.


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

That would be the argument I would have made but it soulds like it passed with zero debate.



They’d rather let working families with children go hungry I guess

This post reminds me of when Jesse Ventura was elected governor of MN. He said some legislators have no common sense. An example he gave was a guy driving a snowmobile on a lake falls through the ice and drowns. So, some legislator thinks there should be a law making it illegal to drive a snowmobile on the ice until a certain date in the winter. Jesse said, "Don't they realize this incident is nature's way of getting rid of stupid people?"

I would guess it may have something to do with , most cities have laws on the books that if you harvest something for human consumption you can hang for processing in your yard for 48 hours , deer are the most common thing for this.

how ever if you make it illegal to consume , then it can't be for human consumption and must be hidden away done in secret.

probably also some vein of well if they can't eat it , they won't be as likely to call it a nusance. they are wrong in that it generally isn't the people calling it a nuisance who want to eat it , those are the people wanting the trappers to come in and eradicate it because it is backing up drain tiles, roads , ag land , yards , flooding buildings , ect...


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

They're probably talking about Beaver killed as ADC, without a trapping/hunting permit.
