The very best part of Voyageurs national park – I mean completely aside from all their “Wolves think beavers are tasty” research and the occasional “Wolves think beavers are so tasty they lure them away to eat them” research, the best part of voyageurs other than that is that it gives us a glimpse of the wild dammed and wildly dammed world we once had.
Last night they released a fantastic film of the use that wildlife finds for beaver dams.
Vignettes from a Northwoods beaver dam! We have said it before and will say it again: beaver dams are nice natural bridges that wildlife like to use to cross wetlands, swamps, and bogs. pic.twitter.com/nJUB2qWAx2
