The amount of time and effort that goes into trapping is astonishing. You two gents are inspiring. Honing a craft takes time. Thank you for taking us along.
That is a action packed video guys. Boating in the Tundra and beaver by the tail. Someone is going to be very busy skinning and finishing those beavers. Thanks for the "ride along".
That was very impressive my friends! I cant believe you caught that beaver that was caught by the tail! Great demonstration on dispatching a beaver with a 330! Thank you for sharing and Good luck with everything!
Lotta hard work, dedication and perseverance right there.... I ran 3 sets back in the early 70's for rats n coons..... Hard work for good money in those days.
You guys must have traveled to many counties to get that many beaver. Great trailer load of beaver. Hopefully after figuring out your expenses you guys made out good.
Good job guys! Im gonna break out the trapping gear again this fall. No one trapa around here in pa anymore and we are over run with sickly predators. Time to thin them out. Love the video!
Thats a lot of fur. My brother got into trapping in early 70's. Made enough money to buy his first car himself. Not many beaver here in western north Carolina. But they started coming back 20 years ago. At first a novelty people thought they were great to see. Until a local town started losing there decorative trees near a walking path. Now beaver not seen as much..in that town at least
Hello Mark, you can email me at chrisinthewoodyard@g mail.com and I can get you in touch with my brothers wife, nshe takes care of it...thanks! @@markhammon3038
@@outofthewoodyard Interesting! I could definitely see that happening. I just caught a female yesterday coming from a castor mound in the wrong direction. Lol
@@outofthewoodyard Have you ever run into any trap-shy beaver setting off 330's at den entrances? I trapped a den that must have been improperly trapped. Never did catch anything out of it. Damn things kept setting off the 330's... and not with sticks.
@@outofthewoodyard I've got 110 Bridger's. I've gotten rats by the tail in them. I also have caught 3 trout in them so they have a hair trigger as well. DNR told me to let the trout "swim away" such a waste
Need find you old McCulloch Eager Beaver Chainsaw you boys can use now make full circle . I was getting $30-40 dollars for good prim Raccoon back in 1979-80s in NE Oklahoma
It is different every year. This year 10-50 for put up beaver depending on the size but we sold the beaver in the round (whole) this year so we averaged $20 @
Great work. A lot of memories spent with your brother. I’m not sure if you covered this, but what kind of waders do you use? They have to be very durable with all the work you do in them.
No! They where all loaded into the fur buyers trailer and they where processed the next day for hides to make hats and garments. Then all the carcasses where used to feed his fox and mink on his farm. The tails where used to make leather and the castors where used for making perfume. 100% of the animal is used.
@@outofthewoodyard furs have always been better than any man made fake fur, it’s a renewable resource! That’s been used from the beginning of time! I hate that television and it’s brainwashing of city people who don’t understand how the cycle of life works for mankind ! Walt Disney ruined the minds of millions of people around the world, with his animated film of animals talking and people believing in his propaganda against the use of God given animals for clothing and food
Sure wish I had a tractor and trailer back in the day. It saves alot of back breaking work! For battling weather...You two are really doing well! Have you lost any traps in all the flooding? Back in the early 90s when you could hardly give a coon fur away. I bought a little Chevy sprint hatchback to save on gas money while hunting. I couldnt tell you how many nights I ripped the exhaust off that car. The suspension would absolutely bottomed out from all the weight of coons in the hatch and back seat!😂🤣😅
@outofthewoodyard So somewhere in Wisconsin, there is an angry 3 toed bear!😮 We are top of the food chain down here, so never have to deal with them or wolves.
I have to agree this is a bad look. I am a beaver trapper also, been doing it for 50 plus years. I agree that you will never change the antis mind, however it’s the people on the fence, we as trappers need to worry about their perception of what we do and enjoy doing. Respectfully, from one trapper to another, please consider this in your future videos
I will consider the "look" in the future with even more much bigger catches. It is what we do and we are not ashamed of it. AND we are not going to hide reality. Everyone kills if they are alive. Disney is not real. Food does not come from the grocery store.
Holly Cow! I never thought of beavers being able to breed like that. That is crazy. Have you seen any french speaking dudes with musket rifles running around? LOL @@outofthewoodyard
What are you talking about...good look??? As in successful?? Would being poor trappers be better??? Being lazy and not working hard be better? Most of the areas we trap are filed with beaver that are constantly plugging culverts and flooding roads and some on private property killing thousands of trees, We barely make a dent in the population and they make new ones every day in the 8 different counties we trap. The land owners call us begging and pay us to trap the beaver and the townships also call us and ask us to trap the areas with beaver problems every year. Because there are so few trappers the beaver population is exploding where we trap. There are also full time professional government trappers in many states that trap YEAR ROUND killing beaver and tossing them out because they have no value. Your tax dollars are what funds them so you and I are paying for that. So really you are trapping year round too.
Totally fine to thin down the population and utilize the resource, I'm all for that. But posting publicly , throwing them around and using a loader to dump their bodies into a truck? Probably not gonna get anyone to support Trapping. Likely this will be viewed as careless and cruel by people that want to end trapping. Beavers can be a nuisance but they are also a beautiful animal that deserves to be cherished when their life is taken. I just worry about which anti trapping group will use this footage for their benefit.
@@DinoDavey The beaver have an average weight of 30 pounds more or less and if we where to gently place 200 dead beaver from the shed to the dump trailer with white gloves and a padded floor for them to lay on comfortably ....that would take all day and be just stupid. It was 6000 pounds of beaver to load. Not a one pound plastic wrapped chunk of ground beef at the grocery store. The only people who can claim to be never "cruel" to animals or plants is if they do not eat. How do you think your chicken, beef, pork, lamb, fish, turkey, carrots, potatoes, apples, leather boots, leather belt, wood in your home and furniture made from living trees, ...etc. is treated before you pay some one to kill it for you and EVERYONE else in the world to eat and use? I do not worry about what soft sheltered unaware of reality city people think or feel about how I work or eat. There are 8 billion people to keep happy if you want, I am not going to hide or sugar coat any thing in the way the real world works. The anti trappers/hunters/fishermen crowd are never going to accept reality, until they are starving ... then they will know why animals and plants are killed.
I personally do not think anything you did is wrong, and it does not escape me how much death occurs just for us to eat on daily basis. I just think it is unwise to post this entire dump truck loading online. I still would like to be trapping 30 years from now. Just because you "do not worry" doesn't stop anti groups from having serious power. The ability to trap in states is slowly being chipped away. If they get their way, then it will literally be all professional government trappers doing the work. All I'm saying is be mindful about how Trapping is presented online - there are many more eyes watching than your fans and fellow trappers.
@@DinoDavey We are not afraid of reality. This is real, if people do not like it they should get back in their crib and put a nook in their mouth and put their blanky over their head and hide. The people who let their lives be ruled by feelings will never change and we will not try to change their minds. Hiding it and changing the words to be more gentle will not change the facts. We kill to live. Everyone does. We are just not afraid to admit it.
Eugene you know nothing about beaver trapping. 100% of the beaver are used. Hides for hats, cowboy hats and fur hats, tails for leather, castors for perfume, carcass ground for sled/pet dog food and fur farm animals, internal organs for fur farm, tails for leather. Your food does not come from the grocery store it is grows on ranches and farms and then killed for you to eat weather it is animal or vegetable. There can be no life without death. Disney is not real.
So are you saying we should work hard and be successful? Or we are not suppose to trap problem beaver on dozens of properties to help the land owners and the townships save their roads and culverts that are flooded out and washed out from the beaver. Or are we supposed to catch just one beaver and go home when we have dozens people calling us to help them out get rid of the beaver cutting down all the trees on their lake front property? Or maybe we should not supply a fur farm and dog sled owners feed their dogs and live stock with literally tons of the best meat on the planet?? If we just lived off of the government in the cement jungle and collect pay for not doing anything be better maybe that would make us better people.
Nope, it is all used to feed dogs and the animals at the fur buyers fur farm, it is all used...100% You don't know what you are talking about because you must not have watched out other videos where we talk about where the fur, meat, castors and tails go to, it is all used.
@@outofthewoodyard that’s the first video I’ve seen so sorry buddy; I myself enjoy beaver meat so I’m glad you are not wasting it and Also that’s quite the catch you guys have there 👍👍👍👍
Wow now that's just a pretty sit. Right there guys . Great job. . We're am at I could do this also. There isn't meany places that u can do this . . Great job. Proud of ya all I love keep it coming 🎉❤😊😊
And the thing is, all those beaver and barely a dent in the population. Glad this resource has a renewed interest
Yup, there are lots more!
Never thought i would see that many pelts/fur in one place let alone in a dump trailer..

Looks like 👍 you and Ken work well together on trapping beaver and other critters in the marshlands also waterways excellent work and video 😮😊❤
Thanks... Yes!
Really respect the time, energy and effort you guys put into putting up those kind of numbers. Thanks for sharing
Thanks!
That was simply amazing to see that many at one time.
Thanks for watching, that was a few days worth, we trap for weeks.

That was a lot of beaver in the trailer even though they weren't all yours. Pretty cool!!
Take care guys!!😀😀💚💚

Yes it was! Thanks!
How manny total beaver do you catch in a year? Do you skin and tan them? Also how much did buyer give for all fur including 4 otter and 20 rats
This year about 450 last year 550. They are made into hats. Not enough.
@@outofthewoodyard that's very well I can hardly trap any lol.
@@outofthewoodyard how do I order a hat?

Lots of Beaver Sold, must be well worth it, especially for all the hard work even though you have skinned some already.😊
It is a lot of work, but fun too.
You caught a trap-shy beaver by the tail!!! Trap-shy beaver will slap there tail at a 330 to trigger it. Way to go!!!
No, they are on the bank above the trap and turn there tail into and get caught... I have seen it on some trail camera stuff I shot.
@@outofthewoodyard Interesting! I could definitely see that happening. I just caught a female yesterday coming from a castor mound in the wrong direction. Lol

Thank you very much! Lots more to come!
What a season!
That was not even at the 1/2 of the seasons videos yet.
How do you keep them from going bad just sitting in that building? I would think they’d need to be in a cold space.
Below freezing nights and kept in the shade during the day. They will last for well over a week after being caught.
thats a crap-ton of beaver, 3 ton at least. thats a lot of work to catch them too. Kenny needs a bigger bucket....lol
Yes it is a lot!
I've gotten rats by the tail but never would have believed a dry ground beaver would have stayed in a 330 tail catch.
Bridger 330s are awesome traps, we have caught quite a few like that with them and other 330 traps are just empty...the bridges close tight!!
@@outofthewoodyard I've got 110 Bridger's. I've gotten rats by the tail in them. I also have caught 3 trout in them so they have a hair trigger as well. DNR told me to let the trout "swim away" such a waste
Been looking for a beaver gauntlet pair made and captured here in the US, do you have an Etsy shop?
email me and I can hook you up....chrisinthewoodyard@gmail.com
How do they skin them? And what do they do with the meet? thanks
I have some skinning videos on my channel from a few videos ago. This buyer has a fur farm and feeds his mink and fox the beaver meat.
lMy sides are in total chaos from laughing. thank you
Glad you enjoyed!!
Need find you old McCulloch Eager Beaver Chainsaw you boys can use now make full circle . I was getting $30-40 dollars for good prim Raccoon back in 1979-80s in NE Oklahoma
Yup, fur in the 70s &80s was great!
that is a heck of a lot of beaver , i would hate to flesh that many out at one time .
Yup, it is a bunch.
How many face cords of beavers fit in that dump trailer?
Ha!! About 1/3 of a face...maybe!
I see Beaver Burgers on your table soon!
Yup, beaver is good!
How many beaver bucket you got on that tractor there? Is that a 12 beaver bucket?
Yup, it is about that!
I thought it was 20
Chris, just out of curiosity what do you guys get for a hide? My dad's cousin trapped bever years ago when I was younger.
It is different every year. This year 10-50 for put up beaver depending on the size but we sold the beaver in the round (whole) this year so we averaged $20 @
Great work. A lot of memories spent with your brother. I’m not sure if you covered this, but what kind of waders do you use? They have to be very durable with all the work you do in them.
Yup, we have a good time. Cabelas dry plus. We get about 2 years out of a pair. $250
I hope the fur buyer treated you better than last year
Yup, we did okay.
Carlson gets around!
Maybe so!
Was it not worth you skinning them yourself?
Yes but we catch 2x as many not having to skin, more time for trapping and less garage time in skinning and putting them up.
@@outofthewoodyard No fur slippage from handling that way?
@@mattyallen3396 No, it was below freezing every night and they are going to the hatter market.
We want justice for animal
Hope they are not wasting the fur .
It is all for cowboy hats!!! And the meat is used as well as the tails for leather.
A lot off Chinese food with the beaver 🦫 meat Chris 😊
Really???
Ban trapping 😊
Ban people first.
WOW!
Thanks for watching!
So what did yAll do just put them in a landfill
No! They where all loaded into the fur buyers trailer and they where processed the next day for hides to make hats and garments.
