They're eating the ~~dogs~~ beavers

I really, really want to know why someone added that provision in the first place, and why it didn't immediately get removed as being utterly irrelevant.

Personally, I'm of the opinion that--aside from predators and pets--you should be eating animals that you intentionally kill. It seems wasteful and disrespectful to kill a nuisance animal, and then just leave the body to rot.
