    England could benefit from more beavers

    Apparently:

    "Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny. "

      Have a Guinea pig instead - apparently they are very similar, ask EO
      I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

          They were prized for their fur, their meat and their scent glands

              No, just Richard Gere. Or was it his hamster?
              Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?

                Arrr - but they're sooo cute!
                My daughter Googled guinea pig pictures once and the first one that came up was a guinea pig roasted with a salad! I was quick off the mark, and got rid of it - but poor Pogle jnr was a tad upset. However it did then lead us into a debate about eating animals/meat and how different cultures do different things - so it wasn't all bad.
