I am the only person that thinks this is so wrong!

they have captured the poor thing and have him on display in edinburgh zoo! they haven't even confirmed yet if there are any other beavers in the area! Beavers mate for life - poor Mrs. Beaver could have been left behind!!!!!

He's not in the zoo, he is at a wildlife park. Would you think it was wrong if you were walking in the woods when a tree fell down because the beaver had chewed its way through it. Obviously they will look for others, but they shouldn't have been there in the first place.

1. Beavers are nocturnal so I don't wander through the woods at night
2. Beavers are incredibly shy creatures so if i was to happen upon one, I doubt very much he would finsh gnawing on his tree so it could fall on my head
3. He is in edinburgh zoo as there was an item about him on the BBC morning program yesterday morning showing him in Edinburgh Zoo and interviewing the keeper that is taking care of him.
