Well that would be my record as well. Unfortunately the state record is 110 pounds. That would be like adding your dog on the scale! Seems to me I recollect a couple from Rhode Island that did ADC work back about twenty years ago. Their company was Gentle Jim's something or other. Ever heard of it?

Hey Rhode Island, beaver tag sounds like a lot of fun. No tags back?

I would get it mounted and place it on top of your truck , you could also use it as a decoy on jobs making a castor mound set with added eye attraction . That could work beaver decoys . Hmmm there goes them wheels spinning

That really didn't surprise me. 65 lbs. is my heaviest beaver and it wasn't nearly that large. Congratulations; most people get charged for their trophies, we get paid for ours!
