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

Two get a ride- Rusty Cohn

Last night Rusty photographed a beaver giving and receiving a piggy back at the same time. Reminding me of some amazingly stacked toy where children can pile beaver on the back of beaver like elephants holding tails.

I just don’t know, do you think they’re cute enough?

Maybe if they were just a LITTLE cuter or had faces like raccoons or hung out in eucalyptus tree like Koala beavers they would have a chance of convincing people not to kill them. Maybe if they came out in the daytime or during traffic or only during parades people would understand how adorable and useful they are.

I mean it’s not enough that beaver ponds save water or prevent fire or reduce flooding or help salmon or increase birds or increase amphibians or remove nitrogen or clean the water, All that just isn’t enough.

So maybe if they were cuter?
