JCC Do you like my beaver???

Additionally, I need a name for him. Any suggestions would be appreciated

 

"Wallace." And yes, I like your beaver.

 

Are you sure it isn't too big?

 

you may need to clean it up. maybe trim the beaver.

 

Too hairy??

 

How about Ronald Reagan?

 

It's nice and wet, Bill.

In terms of a name, beavers belong to the genus 'castor'. In Greco-Roman mythology, Castor was the mortal half-brother and twin of Pollux. The pair of them had what must've been a pretty awesome temple devoted to them in Rome. Not much left of it now, it's instantly recognisable from its three remain columns.

So yeah... if you have any taste at all, you'll call it Justin. Justin Beaver.

 

And so it shall be. I will keep you all posted on my beaver.

 

Does it do tricks?

 

Absolutely! It's a lovely and talented beaver in many ways.

I once had a toy beaver named "Bud Gnawwood", or something like that.

i'm going to start tagging Darth Guy in all threads like this because i know he doesn't want to miss it

 

Kewl. If I had a beaver like that I'd play with it all day.

 

I appreciate it!

 

Innuendo!

I understand there is a Brazilian variant of the beaver which is hairless, similar to the Sphynx. I am unsure what genetic advantage a beaver without hair conveys, but I am sure Darwin will explain it somewhere. Perhaps a hairless beaver is not as hot.

 

I've been doing some research and my suspicions have been confirmed...
