Apparently all across the countr people are demanding their right to beavers. It’s about dam time. This new report is from the city of brotherly love beaverly love.
VIDEO: Neighbors want beaver visiting Penn Treaty Park to stick around

Oregon considers bill to protect beavers on federal land
Oregon lawmakers are considering legislation that would prohibit beaver trapping and hunting on federally managed public land. Employees of federal land management agencies would be exempt from the restrictions. Workers would still have the power to remove beavers that are causing issues like road and campground flooding. Still, critics say the bill is unnecessary. We hear from Suzanne Fouty, a hydrologist who helped write the bill, and Holly Akenson, a wildlife biologist and member of the Oregon Hunters Association, which opposes the bill.
This is what happens when the right people are on beaver’s side.
