About my work - I remove beaver dams when I receive an order from a state organization.
I do not choose which dam to remove. It is decided by officials at the request of nearby residents. Each dam is assessed in advance if it can and if should be dismantled.
Removing the dam is not a threat to beavers. I do not remove their houses - lodges.
Dams are removed only in places where beavers cause damage, for example by flooding nearby fields, flooding the basements of nearby houses, or when the stream on which beavers built their dam is degraded.
Even though beavers are very invasive animals, they are under strict protection in our country.
I personally like all animals, so beavers are fine too.

@@jrcather5196 - as can be seen in plenty of videos on KZbin, beavers also create enormous damage to farmland and crops, and kill a heck of a lot of trees. In *appropriate* locations, beavers can do a lot of good; in inappropriate places, they do immense harm. It's like the old gardener's saying: "A weed is just a plant in the wrong place."

As a former beaver trapper, now reformed, I am curious as to why you are removing the dam? Having spent half a lifetime trapping beaver, and being very good at it, I have seen the decrease in biodiversity that happens when beaver ponds are removed from the landscape. I understand there are certain reasons to remove them, but it looks like no farm land was impacted nor does the timber look like it is of high value. Out west people are now realizing the value of beaver on the landscape. Their ponds are nutrient sinks, they recharge ground water and they store water for periods of drought. In wetter areas they mitigate floods by slowing downstream flow down and once again act as nutrient sinks and recharging ground water.

[@SafeTrucking]

Great informed comment! We obviously don't have beavers here in Australia, I'm sad to say. We also don't have a lot of permanently standing water - our "billabongs" are usually fairly transient, lasting a few years after floods, shrinking all the while through evaporation (and through large drawdowns from famers). River management is a huge topic here.

[@QuitCryingYouLost]

Remove them all.

[@johnmooney9444]

Among other things, the dams cause flooding of farm land.

[@LiterallyOverTheHillAdventures]

@@johnmooney9444 If you read what I said, I said I realize they need removing if farmland is flooding, but that was not the case in this particular instant. It appeared to be rather hilly and not farmed. Nor did the timber look valuable. I used to be a beaver control agent, trapped them for a living years ago. Busting the dam will not take care of the problem, it will be rebuilt in most cases unless you trap the beaver.

[@LiterallyOverTheHillAdventures]

@@QuitCryingYouLost I take it you are not an outdoorsman who likes to hunt? Because if you were, you would know they offer some great habitat for pretty much everything people hunt except for maybe quail (though woodcock, grouse, snipe and at times dove love them and pheasants like them too especially in the winter time) mountain goats and sheep and pronghorns.

In the natural cycle of a beaver dam collapses happen and the beavers rebuild. Down stream gets water, and when rebuilt water in the soil. In Northern Ontario they create meadows, in Algonquin Park, a lake I visited in 1969, made by beavers is now a marsh. The lower level had drained, however beavers were long gone.

[@wardthomas8389]

I do absolutely enjoy the sight and sound of the rushing water. I do however have a question. Why in this video and others do you start by removing the dam by the bank nearest to you instead of the far bank? If you start at the far bank you will have less debris washed away by the rushing water in my opinion. Also by my experience. I have watched others that remove dams do the same as you, with the same consequences.

[@msTECH86]

I'll explain why we do this. It often happens that in the area near the beaver dam there are large holes into which you can fall. Therefore, it is safer to start from the closer bank and build it up even a little with material removed from the beaver dam, and only then move further when you know that the bank will not collapse under the entering excavator.

[@wardthomas8389]

@@msTECH86 Thank you for your explanation. I have never encountered that myself but it does make sense the times I have seen the excavator move closer after some of the dam is removed. I know that the excavator was not always moved closer at times(I don't remember if it was your videos though). In any case, keep up your great work. You by far are the best of anyone else I have seen on KZbin. An added bonus is when you have your wife or any other family member with you. I do my best to let others know of you. Especially the other dam removers that obviously don't have the pride in their work that you do.
