Beavers are only doing what's natural to them. They don't know that they're causing floods so killing them for doing what's natural is highly unnatural.

I agree wholeheartedly. There is no reason to use such a vile method when a non-destructive method is available.

It's time for the City of Kingston to step up and resolve this - quickly. It's 2017. In the meantime, not a bad idea to trap the trappers and their perverted actions and ....

“The beaver is considered a keystone species, with implications for the rest of the ecosystem. "They create habitat for many other species. Surely in these days of greater conservational awareness, better options can be realized.

Please consider and then implement this humane water flow control to eliminate the need to trap beavers. Our wildlife is imperilled on all fronts and this is a reasonable means of achieving our objective without having a negative impact on the beaver population.

Use the humane alternative to achieve the desired end. Consider sending Kingston staff to London to observe, learn and source the flow devices.

Get with the program and use humane flow devices not archaic trapping of the beavers. Orphaned babies are the consequences of YOUR choices !
Not necessary to kill beavers, these are very important animals to the environment, so symbolic they feature on Kingston's crest and our Canadian currency. Please use something humane.

You have a responsibility to do the right thing here Kingston. Killing these animals to save a few dollars while there is an alternative, humane method is simply unacceptable.

The world is starting to recognize the importance of these wonderful animals. Try coexisting, PLEASE! It's much cheaper in the long run.

These animals are not over populated, they are not pests, they do not carry disease... there is absolutely no reason to be using lethal trapping. Shameful.

How quickly we forget the importance of Canada's White Pine, and the Beaver. Without both one wonders if our Canada would have been.

Beavers are very valuable to our ecosystem. Killing them is very shortsighted.
