    Are they worth anything or you just keeping them from causing problems?

        Worth as much as used ass wipe and less desireable.

            Usually they’ve caused quite a few problems by the time you notice and can get them. I think I despise them as much as makar does. They clear trees and dam up water just like our yellow iron does but never in a good spot.

                The castor is very valuable. I’ve been building a stockpile to sell. Fur, not so much. Tail, depends on municipality.

                        Ok you got me boys....valuable beaver castors?!?

                        I’ll check the next time I check the menu at Peking house. But other than the lunch special...what the hell are they valuable for!

                        I’m still crying on the ground. I love learning something new and this is top shelf stuff

                                The casters pay more than the pelt or tail. Value in harvesting the big rat.

                                    The Wild Wild West gets stranger every day.We have these four leg horn attack roosters that some one dropped off in our farmyard. They have been hanging around the horse pen all summer. The kids are attacked with a vengeance. I wonder if beaver castors would tame them.

                                        The castor is the beavers scent marking gland for territorial markings like dogs do with urine kind of. Except it is a pleasing door, vanilla ish.

                                        Food flavourings, food additive, (natural flavour) in ice cream for example, perfumes, lure making, a very unique product, only found on beavers! Lol Just a little goes a long, long way.

                                        Hundred bucks a lb. or so right now. Some beavers have a tenth of a lb, some have a quarter lb.
