Because the beaver isn't just an animal; it's an ecosystem!

Day: January 27, 2020


There are more  concerns from  Pennsylvania about the dam that may or may not cause problems on Mather road (still complaining and no smarter a week later) 

Rick Campbell of Mather said he’s captured images of a big beaver and three smaller ones on his trail cam at the reservoir seven different times, usually in the evening.

“There’s no telling how many there might be,” Bence said. “Usually beavers don’t live in large numbers. It’s mostly a male and female with this year’s pups. After a year, the pups disperse to look around for a mate.”

God knows how many. There are probably a MILLION. Maybe even a GAZILLION. Because you know how beavers are always teaming up with other families to form communes and ruin roads.

Rushing around in zombie work lines. Just like that ancient Moll map.

        A view of Industry of beavers of Canada in making dams to stop Course of Rivulet, in order to form a great lake about which they build their habitations. To effect this they fall large trees with their teeth in such a manner to make them come crofs and rivul to lay foundations of dam. They make Mortar. work up and finish whole with great order and wonderfull dexterity. The beavers have two doors to their lodges. One to the water and the other to the landside. According to french accounts.

It is all pretty amazing when you think about it.
