Pond Boss Forums GENERAL QUESTIONS Wildlife Management Beavers

Zep, if you can locate their run (channel dug into the pond bottom leading to their den) you can set the conibear in it, underwater. That will keep it away from the kids and the dog.

There are cage traps with doors on each end that are hinged at the top, and the doors are longer than the cage is tall. They only open as an animal pushes against the door from the outside. I've built some and used them for muskrats, again placing them in their runs. Multiple catches with the same trap in one night was the norm.
