Here is another update on the Otter Beavers. They caught 5 and have tested them. There seems that 3 more kitts could still be in the river but can be caught later for testing.

This is racist and Americanist, innit :eek: ?!?!?!?
If the tests prove that they are American, then what ??? Will we shoot 'em or deport 'em ???

I'm inclined to go with the 'placate the fishermen' bit ......

What an absolute palaver - they can't leave anything alone can they - ooo what's that? - dunno, could be dangerous - better drag it out, test it, label it and give it a certificate.

Good that they are back in the river.

Some jobsworths have had a high old time with this one. Now they'll study the poor put-upon things and at the end of 5 years will argue that under no circumstances should they be moved, tested or otherwise interfered with. Another 5 years of testing are required ..... until something else crops up which needs meddling with.

What a carry on.
