January 11, 2020 at 2:53 amBeavers have been active in The Tradition community in South Carolina this year, in Community ponds
and Golf course ponds. They set traps in one pond this past summer, and concerned residents took action
themselves to have them removed due to all the wildlife in the area. many thanks to PETA for stepping in on the first account, the golf course worked with them,
The Beaver family and kits did not survive in the end, and more have shown up in other ponds, traps were set, now they are in different ponds trappers hired again.
This will be never ending and costly, with no one asking if residents wanted to pay or co-exist,
several of us on the pond they started in took preventive measures, killing is senseless.
The emails being sent from the POA President are getting a bit much, Unsettling to say the least,
and am tapping any source at this point for help or advice.
There is so much building in this area they are being forced out of their habitat, not their fault, they are doing what Beavers do to survive!
Hence why two Beavers were literally in our entryway of our house, ran into storm door:
trying to get to pond behind us, again, they need a body of water!
