@Timpostma It is absolutely not a joke. Beavers are amazing!

@hydropsyche yeah i get what your saying for instance beaver might not know swear words

@hydropsyche yes beavers are smart enough for construction but what about aggressive behavior
Show threadElizabeth SudduthOct 14, 2023
@Timpostma I have no idea why you're coming back to this 6 months later, but beavers really aren't aggressive. They're herbivores and mostly just scared of people. I intentionally work in places where beavers live, and I rarely even see them. The only case of beaver aggression I've ever heard of was in a rabid animal--rabies makes non-aggressive animals aggressive.

@hydropsyche This is very interesting - we're near a privately run nature preserve where they are struggling to manage the beavers' zeal. Thank you for sharing!

@dandelion Unless you're in South America or Australia, the beavers are part of your natural systems and are making the nature preserve better habitat for everyone else.
Show threaddandelionApr 7, 2023
@hydropsyche Agreed! And they (at the preserve) are trying too. But a few gentle adjustments may be necessary to have us all live side by side - like keeping the road from flooding....

@hydropsyche First time I've heart it called a pond leveler. Usually I hear them called beaver deceivers.
Show threadElizabeth SudduthApr 7, 2023
@neia I believe "beaver deceiver" is trademarked? It is a great name!

@hydropsyche someone earlier today posted that apparently fishers went in a complete 180 with regards to beavers, because the actual affected streams now are a lot better and have much larger healthier fish, which lead me down an interesting rabbit hole

@hydropsyche The Beaver's face in the "Don't destroy dams" panel always makes me laugh.
