Bros theres a small stream in my city that at least one beaver lives in but it's completely full of trash. I'm considering cleaning it up myself in spring since nobody else has done anything about it. Theres shopping carts, plastic, fabric, etc. all littered throughout it. I feel so bad for him and it disgusts me how dirty people let it get.
Same thing in my city. We have a spring that was created by some oil millionare a hundred years ago that's now part of a park. Our township doesn't give a frick and it's now just a place for moronic zoomers to do drugs and throw garbage into. I wish I could clean it up or at the very least tell the town to clean it up but I know it wont happen.
Beavers are straight up evil. Vicious blood thristy buttholes. They will attack for no reason.
Both kinds.
Ruski here.
I propose we introduce a new pan-Slavic saying using that one video. You know the one.
>Ale fajne bober... Kurwa gryze!
I.e
"To know whether something is a fajne bober (a fine beaver) or kurwa that gryze (b***h that bites) you have to touch it's back."
Meaning
>You can never know before you try
Sounds profound enough, nyet?
Beautiful
Maybe they just attack you cuz you're an ugly mouth breathing troglodyte?
Nice beaver.
I love beavs. I live right near a river and I see them dicking around on my morning walk all the time.
Tonight is the full beaver moon
Every time I see that image I expect a posts long political essay.
beavers are the perfect lifeform
Beavers are cool. Ducks, not so much.
these are considered a plague/invasive species in southern argentina because some c**t wanted to initiate a fur trade business
>destroys a vibrant forest leaving a cesspool of dirty, contaminated water in your path
>vibrant forest
Wow! Look at this vibrant forest and all those wildflowers and pollinators!
>ferns, multiple species of tree, shelter for hundreds of kinds insects and animals
vs
>dirty swamp grass and dead trees. Sometimes fish if the pond is young and hasn't been filled with shit and rotting things contaminating the water, making it impossible for anything but bacteria to survive
We got beavers invading just off my property, they turned the neighboring lot from a beautiful meadow full of all kinds of flowers, wild fruit, and trees into a stinking cesspool with only swamp grass, dead tree husks, and mosquitos.
And guess what... When their dam gets breached and the water table lowers, all that good swamp soil in the full sun will support all sorts of plants and animals.
The land has never recovered. It's stayed marshy and dead ever since we killed them all years ago and cut the dam out.
Now they're back and cutting down and girdling dozens of trees on the other bank and destroying that ecosystem too. The new pond smells like a sewage pool despite having a clean stream flowing into it.
Then maybe its a problem of the proper vegetation not being there. Go get yourself some iris, pickerel weed, cattail, etc, and stick it into the mud. They're all rhizomatous plants that spread very quickly. That's what I did when I built my pond, if I didn't it'd probably still be a mud pit. It would also solve the sewage smell which is probably from too many nutrients that aren't being used.
It's illegal for me to reclaim the land now that some government homosexual classifies it as wetlands.
Which also means it's illegal to remove the swamp rats and I need to buy special permits to be allowed to remove their dams and repair my bridge.
Standing deadwood is super valuable real estate for all kinds of animals.
So are grassy fields with flowers, fruiting plants, and live trees.
Now any animal stupid enough to try and cross this drowns and adds to the stench. Not even beavers go into it anymore, they just moved to my bridge and are destroying the forest to make another murky cesspool
Of course it looks dead and brown in the winter. The frogs probably love it.
It looks dead in the summer, too. It used to be a vibrant field.
I have never heard frogs in it.
>Good.
What are some objective arguments for biodiversity being a good thing? I have a feeling that it's good but I couldn't explain why. Just so we have more stuff around? Because it's pretty to look at? What would be the harm in only having 10% of the species around that are alive today? I think one good point is that what's lost will probably be lost forever, but that's all I can think of.
Diverse ecosystems are generally more productive (in the "gross tonnage of biomass produced per hectare" sense), more resilient against changes (both direct human disturbance and environmental changes) and are better at providing ecosystem services (cleaning water, nutrient cycling, compensating for heat and flooding).
o kurwa
>biodiverse ecosystem
That's an odd way of saying "massive fricking mosquito spawning vats"
Poka bobra xD
Why are slavs so obsessed with beavers?
idk. I have an old Russian backpack that's called a 'bober' because it has an extra, flat storage area shaped like a beaver tail.
Beavers remind me a little of fantasy dwarves, because they're small, hairy, strong and industrious.
BÓBR! I LOVE BÓBR!

Some of the goofiest looking animals
those toenails are so gross
ever since i learned that water mammals have nails on their fins i hate them so much now it's so disgusting
We have beavers in my neighborhood and its hilarious
litle bobber
He’s cool.
why does he look like that
wife took everything on the divorce, his kids won't speak to him anymore, he has suffered too much
He is cheesed to meet you
that's not a hippo
hippos are the filthiest and most disgusting animals on.earth
Until your mom went into labor.
>Cool story, bro.
The dammed areas they make usually are cess pits. The water level rises killing the grass and trees which rot and the water has much less flow so it's stagnant, and also commonly has giardium and cryptosporidium.
>moved to michigan
>filled with delight when i saw what i thought was one in a backyard pond
>it was just a muskrat
Muskrats are cool too, weird how they have a similar tail but turned 90 degrees
Yes anon thats called a pond
>Yes anon thats called a pond
Tell us you've never seen a beaver swamp without telling us you've never seen a beaver swamp.
Tell us your mom is a beaver swamp without telling us your mom is a beaver swamp
