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

Tag: Do beavers pat dams with their tail

Ahhh, finally! This explains the beaver myth about them using their tails to pat down mud. Just so you know, they don’t do that. Or live in colonies with millions of fellow beavers. Or reduce trees to toothpics. Or draw X’s on trees they’re going to take. Or row logs like canoes. Or pull owls tails to use them like sirens…well you get the idea. It’s just fun.

As full of factual holes as this cartoon is, its still more accurate than the PWA hydrology report, or the discussion about flooding risk on yesterday’s Terra Verde interview. Because at least it realizes that during periods of rainfall dams wash out!
