[@nineteenfrankie]

Hey David I deal with these Karens too and have learned there is nothing we can do to fix stupid because stupid is FOREVER. It’s a life sentence that we can’t do anything about no matter how much we try. All we can do is BLOCK each and every single one 🤪and go about our lives. But I do pray for them because I know that squirrels are smarter than them and THEY get hit by cars and I just dont want them hurt or killed but I cant waste my time trying to fix what cant be fixed. 😂 Love your channel and truly appreciate you David!

Awesome episode of the Yawt Yawt Show!! Mahalo for the very educational show about how Beavers are a nuisance. Beavers are really smart when comes to damming up the right places to make trouble 😂. I understand how they damage roads with their dams causing flooding. I get it how trapping them is a necessity to avoid these dangerous flooding and road damage!! Keep up the great work and again Thank You for all you do to help us who don’t deal with Beavers understand what’s going on!!

David it’s easy for couch critics to give an opinion on what they don’t understand, have to deal with or agree with due to ignorance. Folks who live in their own bubble are at times the most challenging to enlighten. I salute your efforts to educate. Here in oklahoma we have pigs, coyotes, armadillos, raccoons and feral dogs that destroy our wildlife habitat. Which in turn drastically affect our turkeys, deer, quail, rabbits and other small game animals.

Great information today. I think that the trouble people today have is that growing up, in school, we're taught that the beaver, here in North America ,were trapped to almost gone by fur trappers to fulfill the Greedy money men making profit on the animals' fur. Not landowners keeping their properties kept up by trapping animals causing problems on their ground. They get caught up in the" save the beavers" mentality and don't realize that that era is history. Keep up the great work!

Hey just a suggestion but you may want to consider tying a string to the 2 tools that you use to open the trap with. Might be easier to recover one if you drop it instead of having to reach down in the water😉

I have a creek going through my property. I did have cattle in that same area.....but sold them. In 18 months the beaver built 16 dams. The following year I Bought more cattle. The beaver disappeared ! Key........get rid of trees......brush.... tall grass. Beaver have a hard time to build a dam with no tools ! Maybe impractical most times.......but often that can happen !

Everybody complaining about you trapping needs to adopt a beaver and take 'em home. There truly are way too many people being anthropomorphic! David, ever watched a Post10 on YT? Nice young man who is all about opening culverts and confounding beavers. He knows all about beaver deceivers and culvert cleaning. You might find him and his work interesting. He has to edumacate people too. Hope you got that change of clothes in the truck. I'm 75 and can still hear my mother in my head saying: "you can always take it off, but you can't put it on if you don't have it." As a kid sent off to play for the day; I always had a 'roll' on my saddle. You bet. And I learned to wear hats... Are beaver tails used for anything?

[@garyfrederick9107]

good job dave too bad you can't do that where i am at but here they bother no one i love to see them. funny how state trapper wants to come in and take them out. my banks along my river are 30 foot high and if bursts the dam the beavers put will only go to the missouri river and no one lives down stream of me.. so they bother no one.

Every time I hear you say : Nice Beaver… there is that BeeGees song Night Fever… check out Stevie Riks… misheard lyrics…Nice Beaver!

[@davidbabin387]

Looks like the most common sense way to catch a beaver, after they build their dam, or block up a drainage point, is to break a small part out so water can escape then we know the beaver will find that weak point, and try to repair it. That's when you lay traps in the weak point. Seems like when you do that, you always catch beavers. Now there are times when beavers are found to be in an area, well you know they have one thing in mind, that would be beginning to build dams, and choke points to flood that area. That's when you need to find where the runs are where they are coming up, and out of the water to get the materials to begin their dam building. I've never ever trapped beaver, but the good trappers who can find these areas, and lay traps I have a great respect for. You are one of those types of trappers. Guess as you trap them, you tend to get very knowledgeable on how they will go about doing their job. Good luck, my friend, you do a great service to control the beaver population in different areas. Be Safe, and God Bless!

It would help if they raised the road up and few feet and filled it in with rocks. The water could still drain through the rocks. The blockage needs sorting too. Less beavers will help. But the road could still flood when there’s a heavy rain.

[@waltergurly4040]

That will never work. Of your raised the road 20 ft it would only allow the beavers to build a bigger dam. The water wouldn't go through the rocks like you are saying. I work for the Rd. Department we fight it all the time

[@LB-gr7gu]

Hi David .. Beavers engineer their environment as you know .. the changes can be distructive as well as add biodiversity.. Back in the 1600 Europeans made hats with their pelts .. they are also a food source.. they are the Largest Rodent in N America and live 10 to 12 years with kits once a year of up to 4 ... I`m from Canada and we have their image on some of our money because dead ones became part of the fur industry very lucretive .. And we still have plenty of Beaver .. folks just re-think the beaver .. I do not think most nay sayers want one in their back yard 😂 Peace out

Why not cut a couple larger holes in the panel blocking the culvert then cover them with 330s. So when they come back to plug it you got them. Just a friendly question/ suggestion
