Only one that we know of... Should we trap it and take him/her off to someone else's property??? Should we shoot it and cook it up??? Should we just give it a name and co-exist??? Plus, any other ideas or facts about these critters??? B~ |

Rodent holes -- muskrats, beaver, and others -- can seriously weaken a levee or earthen dam or bank. Of course, you might prefer this option. |

They might be there in muskrat candlelight, doin' the town and doin' it right. In the evenin' it's pretty pleasin'. Yeah, they're Muskrat Susie and Muskrat Sam, doin' the jitterbug out in muskrat land. And they shimmy. And Sammy's so skinny. And they whirl and they twirl and they tango. They're singin' and jingin' the jango. They're floatin' like the heavens above and it looks like muskrat love. Yeah, you need to check on that.............. Spaw |

From: MarkS Down here in South New Jersey, a few of our fire departments have an annual muskrat dinner ( in addition to fish frys, oyster roasts, chicken and bisquit suppers, etc.). Never been to one but I hear they are quite tasty. Bound to be some cooking advice on google somewhere! |
