WBOC-TV 16, Delmarvas News Leader, FOX 21 –
Did I hear that right? Does the state of Maryland actually consider that beavers chewing trees to be a “rather unusual case?”. Hmm. Maybe there are some more “anomalies” you might want to look into. Dogs chasing cats? Birds emerging from eggs? And snakes born with absolutely no fur!
Sheesh.
Nice to see that the good citizens of Salisbury took the time to learn their customary lines for the annual beaver pageant. Do you remember when we did ours hear in Martinez lo these many years ago?
“Move them to a different location where they will be more at home,” Parks said. There are others, however, that believe the beavers should be left alone as they are only doing what comes natural to them. “They need somewhere to live. This is the place where they find trees and resources so I really don’t see too much of a problem with it,” said Salisbury resident Jam’al Washington. “Unless the park wanted to help them out, they can always do that. But if they don’t, then a beaver is going to do what beavers do.”
Will someone please explain to the state that beavers chewing trees is not unusual? And that trees can be protected by wire-wrapping or painting with sand? Apparently the state of “Manly deeds, womanly words” needs a lesson or two in animal husbandry.
