Since his debut on NPR, Beave has gotten more famous. Now his number of followers on TIK TIK has erupted and he found his way onto People magazine of all places. For sure he is not a “people” but try telling him that.
And might as well know, if you haven’t tried wrapping presents with a beaver on your lap, you can hardly say you’re in the holiday spirit.
Meet Beave, the Internet’s Beloved Beaver Who’s Making It Impossible for His Owner to Wrap Gifts
The precious animal has gone viral on TikTok in adorable videos taken by his owner, Nancy Coyne, who is rehabilitating Beave at her residence in New York’s Hudson Valley,
according to NPR.Beave’s Instagram and TikTok accounts, the latter of which has racked up more than 835k followers, features entertaining footage of the animal constantly grabbing things around the house and adding them to a “dam pile.”

“‘What’s it like to rehab a beaver?’ Well, apparently you can’t wrap Christmas presents when he needs attention,” Coyne captioned the video. “Beaver kits have a strong need for socialization and bonding time. A STRONG need.”
To which we at Worth A Dam would say of course! Who would bother wrapping presents when they have the greatest present of all sitting on their lap? Beavers are the very best christmas present the earth ever received. One that keeps on giving year after year. That doesn’t happen very often.

Well well well, you’re going to have some cleaning up to do. And some advocacy to do. “Beave” has made you famous Nancy, and probably generated thousands of dollars in donations to your rehab agency. It’s time you give something back to her future and to all her relatives that. god willing, you never meet.
The next time someone sticks a camera in your face you should talk about why beavers matter, how they could save a drying planet and prevent the seventh extinction. Then feel free to show how cute they are again.

Just so we’re clear. Tell your 800k followers that his family members were killed like millions of other beavers for causing an inconvenience, and if they were allowed to stick around beavers could improve the planet.
