Twice as long =/= twice the size. How do the dams compare in terms of how much water each of the two retains? Basically how many tons of water is pressing up against each of the two dams. I doubt the beaver dam comes close to beating hoover dam.

When I was on a hike in a national park in Alberta, I came across a large pond with a beaver family and dam. Since I was on a hill and didn't intrude, I sat for about 1/2 hr and watched them. One beaver felled 5 trees in that time; it would transport each across part of the pond to another beaver who looked to be in charge of building the dam. It was amazing to watch how quickly the one chewed those trees down, as well as how well they worked together. An incredibly special moment in time for me. 😊

The way they build their lodges is unbelievable, they make the entrances underwater, basically creat a moat if they have to but leaving the roof loose to get fresh air just seems so amazing to me.

A small riverside stop bank built around 1900 in Takaka NZ had it's original construction as loose water permeable stones to reduce, but not stop the flooding around town after a very large flood event so that the rest of the flood plain did not shoulder the extra burden of water. This was done in conjunction with the building of groan's along the riverbank to stabilize the channel. This also worked to filter out large debris from escaping the channel along with the planting of barberry riverside hedges downstream of this stop bank for the same effect. In the 100 following years silt, and trapped organic matter did build an earth shield on the topside of the bank till the original design effect was mostly lost.

I am here to say this: "Not with parachutes" is a statement that ignores COMPLETLY the fact that all the transportation means back then put so much stress onto the beavers, they had high mortality rates. Why? because it took days, if not weeks, and the beavers would die, because they got too hot. The parachute method actually made them all survive, except Kevin, who only died because he thought "fuck that, I don't need a parachute!" and did the R. Kelly and just jumped off the plane, and just believed he could fly. You could say he was a petunia pot that had his first drop. So, when you say "via horse", then that is what they did back then, which killed the beavers. The only reason we can do it now with "mechnical horse" is the technological advance. If you want to throw shade, throw it with all the knowledge presented. Thank you very much.

It strikes me more and more how everything lives mostly in harmony except HUMANS.

[@coreym162]

Who says? We kind of do the same things. Like what's going on in Southern California. The animals follow a corridor of human development down from the Sierras into the Salton Sea and Mexico. Just because, we can damage the environment doesn't mean it's all we do. To think destruction is all we do then don't get mad when another human wrongs you because, they share your unhealthy ideology of "Human bad".

[@ElderRaven]

@@coreym162 sorry didn't mean to trigger you lol

[@MarkDeSade100]

Have you not heard of predators? There are many types of animals that chase other animals down, kill them and eat them. That's not living in harmony.

[@christianheikkonen]

@@MarkDeSade100It is, it keeps the energy pyramid balanced. But for humans, humans have been modifying it to look more like our demographic pyramids in the West or East Asia.

6:20 the proffessor looks so happy, probably because he's an expert in both bush and beaver.

I have recently become a fan- great introductory and educational video- big thanks!

Hi @snowyherge1549, thank you for your nice words - great to hear 🤩

In areas where wildfires have destroyed the surroundings beaver dams have created a oasis where wildlife live.

"Beavers are capable of impressive architectural work when humans aren't holding them back" I wish someone held us humans back every once in a while.

[@INFERNO_802]

4:30 since when did we start using hokey rinks instead of Olympic swimming pools for measuring large amounts of water?

[@benp5103]

Their hard work, dedication, cleverness, and creativity are an admiration.

[@NoContent1991]

Beavvers are the ones who taught us about dams

[@khalee95]

Not even close. Humans have been building dams and rerouting water since the dawn of civilization.

[@AFancyApe]

Beavers don't build because they don't like people going thirsty, they do it to not only spite the lord, but also their everlasting hatred towards running water

[@mountainmanxyz]

Humans don't build because they care about anything but themselves, they do it not only to spite the Lord, but also their everlasting hatred towards everything.

[@Gertyutz]

They build because deeper water makes it easier to evade their predators, mostly wolves and coyotes.

[@Zero_Li24]

5:20 I would love to live in a beaver lodge

murcans: we can't measure the beaver dams water in football fields.... people around the world are starting to make fun of us. i know, we'll measure it in hockey rinks.

😂😂😂

Makes it all the better. That way our Canadian brethren can understand. We got y'all's back 😉

[@PiousMoltar]

Parachuting beavers is wild. It's sad one of them didn't make it :(

[@terramater]

Totally!!

[@KrazyKaiser]

Why did you measure the amount of water in the beaver pond in Hockey rinks? Isn't it more traditional to measure in Olympic swimming pools?

[@jfu5222]

Olympic hockey rink 60×30 meters, Olympic swimming pool 50×25 meters.

[@originaldcjensen]

Maybe there's a Canadian influence, eh?
