NYS is over run with beaver, trapped or shot 18 last year in the creek between my house and hangar. They are amazing critters but when they start flooding your buildings they gotta go.

A long time ago my boss in Sitka was tasked with opening up a beaver clogged salmon stream. After the demolition we anchored sheet plastic visqueen on the creek bottom so they couldn't push in sticks to start another dam. I guess it worked until they just moved their location. Smart beaver.

I got a chance to try and plant turkeys in montana once. I loaded up the biologist in my 12 and as I recall about 6 wild turkeys, the birds not the bottles- that came later in the day. Let's just say that going from 0 to 50 is not a usual flight requirement of a turkey....the next year we just dropped frozen birds, except for the one barn we hit it was more widely accepted by those on the ground.

I like those old vintage videos. I’m sure that is one of Johnson’s Travelair 6000s. Maybe RobertC may recognize some of the players in the Beaver program? Another video that popped up with this one hints that this took place at Chamberlain Basin.
