BEYOND COOKIES: GIRLS HUNT BEAVERS
Chicago Sun Times
November 12, 2003
BY RACHEL D'ORO
ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- Let other Girl Scouts make bird feeders out of Clorox bottles and glue together little birch-bark canoes -- Troop 34 in Alaska is learning to trap and skin beavers.
In a practice that has angered animal rights activists, the girls are killing the beavers as part of a state flood-management program.
''We think it sends a very, very bad message that when animals cause a problem you kill them,'' said Stephanie Boyles of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. She said the Girl Scouts should want girls to become ''stewards of wildlife, not abusers.''
Last spring, about 10 members of the Fairbanks troop and their families helped catch two beavers using snare and lethal traps. The girls were taught how to find the animals' dens and how to lay the traps. Working under close supervision, the girls used knives to skin the beavers.
The troop had the pelts tanned and plans to make hats and mittens once a dozen hides are collected. The girls also want to cook beaver meat.
They plan to begin setting traps out again this month.

And to think, in a few years some of those girls will be hard up for cash, and sending in polaroids to Beaver Hunt. |

I never made it to Girl Scouts. I quit Brownies because I got in trouble on a nature hike...I saw some couple doing it in the woods, and I yelled at the other girls: "Oh my God, y'all have to see this!"...and the Brownie leader got mad, and pulled me aside for a lecture. I was only seven. |

Thank the good Lord that I have not been that desperate yet. Although, if I were, I'd probably give Gallery's "Girl Next Door" a try before stooping to Hustler's "Beaver Hunt." That would be a last resort. |
