Beaver FAIL Video Clips (FUNNY!)

Beavers can be clumsy sometimes, just like people. I have the camera rolling on beavers often enough that I occasionally catch them on video failing in what they are trying to do.
This video compiles a number of video clips that I have filmed over the last two years of beavers tripping, slipping, flipping or breaking through the ice.
Be assured that none of the beavers pictured in this video were injured. Especially after the flips and faceplants, I stuck around each time to make sure the beaver was okay, and after each fail, they just carried on as if nothing had happened.
Enjoy!

This is exactly the content i want, take notes youtube algorithm

[@catherineladd5300]

Yes. I love this so much!

[@mikesvideosofbeavers]

Glad you enjoy it. I’ll never understand the silly algorithm. 99% of my beaver videos get only a few hundred views and then die. Meanwhile I see stuff on KZbin that I can’t comprehend why anyone would watch it, and it has millions of views. Oh well I’m glad the few hundred people who see my videos get some enjoyment out of them.

Such sincere and hardworking creatures 😚😁

I knew there was a reason I like beavers! They are clumsy, like me.

[@christinabroadhead3810]

I love the last fail the best. Such determination! Patience and strong will.

[@mikesvideosofbeavers]

Me too. I saved the best clip for last. I was so thrilled to catch that silliness on video.

Beaver: Never let a fall stop you!

[@kayakinggrandmakelly7105]

I love this!

[@mikesvideosofbeavers]

I’m so glad to hear it. I really had fun putting these clips together.

[@Thea_MojaveOutliersWhipmakers]

This definitely demonstrates why beavers don't typically re-use building materials thrown up onto the bank or shoreline. lol!

[@catherineladd5300]

Oh myyyy Goddddddd!!!!! These are the best! The one guy carrying the mud clump with both hands and then he falls through the ice....the one who does a flip when he falls...I ask you-- what better viewing options are available on KZbin?

[@mikesvideosofbeavers]

Glad you enjoyed the video. I had lots of fun putting these clips together.

[@lecavalier32]

Still one of the sturdiest critters around imo :D

[@StrangerThanFic]

Poor little fellas! I identify with these guys very much -- I have lots of days like this.

[@shinykazzadragon]

I only saw some of the beavers swimming yesterday. None came to shore.

[@comsuonkhi]

you care that much about wild life creature, respect you

The Anti-Beaver Defamation League condems this video.....

[@avalonjustin]

Poor little beavers keep falling over 😟

[@ian.swift.31614]

0:35 super mega ultra fail

[@KarlBunker]

Yeah, they're sure not the most graceful animals on land (or ice).

♥♥ Q: why are they carrying mud up the bank? (I assume they can't build a dam on the huge river you're usually filming)

[@mikesvideosofbeavers]

In the clip where the beaver slips, mud is being added to their lodge, because the mud insulates the lodge for winter. In the clips where they are trying to carry mud up onto the snow, they are just using the mud to make a scent mound, which helps to mark their territory. You are correct that the beavers I followed do not have a dam because the river they live on would be too big to attempt it, and the water is deep enough that they don’t need it.

@@mikesvideosofbeavers Thanks so much for this and for your efforts

Rolly pollies 🥰

[@ml_mellie]

Mike, I have a question. How far are the beavers from your home? I mean, do you always drive a long time to film there? 😊👍❤️🦫🦫

[@mikesvideosofbeavers]

The beavers live just a few minutes from my house.

[@ml_mellie]

@@mikesvideosofbeavers cool 😍 wow 😊
