SOrry, this thread has maintained the straight and narrow. It's too far "normal" for me to veer it into a tree at this point.

I've had Beaver tail many times. Just like most wild game the butchering is the important part. Beaver have some nasty glands that will ruin the meat if your not carefull. http://ushotstuff.com/wg/BeaverSmp.htm
I agree - I have seen someone clean one and was talking about the scent glands being really potent.
I had the chance to shoot one about 10 feet from me during duck season, but passed on the opportunity because I didn't want to spend the rest of the morning preparing it. After all that, I didn't kill a single duck and wished I had shot the beaver.

I want a detailed report. We have dozens of those satanic rodents flooding parts of our farm. If you find a good method I might have to keep a couple.

If nothing else, keep the fat from the tails for cooking fat.
