Here are two beavers are got in 2 days from an area near me. That is a Bridger 330 above the tugs. The one on the left was weighed at 50 lbs and the one on the right I estimate to be about 55 lbs. I don't know how the one on the right fit into the 330. I had to really pull hard to get it off the back.

Thanks. I could see the road from where I was so they weren't too bad. I just put them on my packbasket and off we went. That was easier than learning to flesh the darn things.

Thanks Papa, with these mild temps I should be going for more but needed a break from bending over the fleshing beam for so long learning to put them up! ;D
Gotta get me a better flesher.

Spencer, don't know if anyone answered your question. Sorry it took so long. My intrepretation is that everything you do with a beaver is tugging. Tugging on the trap, on the beaver, on the hide, etc... Maybe someone else has different view.
