Default Beaver Problem - North of Gibbons

I am pleased to announce that this city kid(senior citizen) has now trapped his 1st Beaver!
I went out their today thinking mIty trap didn't work and low an behold their was this huge Beaver stuck in it. At 1st, I was kind of groused out by the sight of the dead animal but had to focus on all the crap he put us through by blocking and building dams to block our drainage system.
I'm told theirs always more than one but I didn't want to touch the trap with my hands as I forgot to bring gloves.
I used the tool I brought to get him out of the trap and tied some rope around his tail and dragged him out to the road.

I had a hard time lifting this rodent onto my trailer. It must have weighed at least 50 lbs + ........

Will be going back out on Wednesday to reset the trap but will bring gloves and a big garbage bag.

What should I do with these dead rodents?
