You could eat it!
Numerous bush people that I know really enjoy eating beaver. One local guy spent many summers working in the bush said if they wanted a good feed of meat, they would shoot some beaver. Another guy that lived his whole life in the bush treated beaver as a staple food, and said you would wither away if all you ever ate was rabbit, with its low fat stores.
Beaver is, apparently, supposed to be very rich, a very high energy meat. There is even a meat market for it in Louisiana, along with coon and muskrat.
