POLL: What should happen to the beaver at Whittemore Brook?

There’s been a lot of discussion by wildlife experts on what to do with the beaver at Whittemore Brook.
Yesterday, the city was to meet with DCR officials and the company Beaver Solutions to go over the options for a low-flow water device that’s suppose to fool the beaver into thinking the dam is safe, but still allow water to flow out of the area.
However, after a 45-minute wait at the brook, a reporter from the Transcript and Animal Control Officer Patrick Hogan discovered the DCR had already been at the site Tuesday without informing the city about the change.
So, does the state want to help or is the DCR embarassed by the fact that last year, the agency had the opportunity to install the same device (with plans provided by Hogan) and instead installed a shoddy pipe the beaver plugged up not only once, but twice.
What’s your opinion? And what should be done about the beaver? Let us know by leaving your comments and/or voting in our poll.
