That's hilarious. Proof positive that it's fun to chase after beaver, but not all of them are fun to actually catch.

I don't think they should kill a beaver because of a dog dying. Am I alone in this thinking?

Agreed - if the shoe was on the other foot, and the dog killed the beaver, don't think anyone would be writing articles on killing the dog. The article actually nails it - you can't fault the beaver for reacting against a threat, and if the owner had better control of thier animal, we wouldn't be having this discussion, and they wouldn't be looking for a new dog.

Now don't everyone get all upset now.... the last news report we saw they decided to simply trap the beavers and relocate the family.

It turns out it's a mom beaver defending her new pups.

All will be Ok...
