    Someone should make a beaver simulation game. You can build and expand your dam and store food for the winter and charge rent to animals that live there
  • Imagine being born with a civil engineering degree coded to your every cell.

    The fact that their home is called a lodge is the greatest thing ever.
  • @beenamed
    Am I the only one who finds this video super relaxing? The sounds of water and the crunchy sounds of beavers gnawing on wood... So calming!

    I had no idea beavers were so awesome. Imaging gathering some buddies together and terraforming the land with nothing but your bare hands and teeth, and then on your lunch break, you eat a chunk of wood.
  • Beavers are really incredible animals. They transform landscapes into wetland ecosystems, creating habitat for other species including fish, mammals, waterfowl, songbirds, amphibians, and insects. And help to protect from droughts, improve water quality, and minimize flood risk and mitigate flooding peaks.

    I had no idea that these guys were acting like little lumberjacks out there, felling enormous trees—and then turning into full-on architects and engineers. What amazing little industrialists and environmentalists they are!
  • but honestly, these animals have got to be the most underrated species ever. Shockingly competent for being some strange amphibian sea dog things.
  • "What are you eating?" "Wood, what are you eating?" "Wood." "Wanna trade?"
  • if there was an online stream of beavers working on their dam, my productivity would skyrocket with a 1000%. I get so motivational to just get things done when i see them working hard to maintain the dam

    I hope that animals all over the world get their rights to be able to live properly, with nature that is not polluted and still maintains its purity aameen ❤
  • 8:03 the little heat vent coming out the top of their house is just the funniest cutest shit ever. It's like they have a lil fireplace going on in there 😂
  • Hats off to those who do beaver rescue and rehab. It's harder and more time-consuming than any animal I can think of... like raising kids. Props and gratitude.
  • It's fascinating to see just how much intelligence is coded into them, from building dams that can hold massive bodies of water back to creating a lodge adapted for the winter.

    I have a lot of respect for beavers now, thank you
  • Unfathomable respect towards these critters. It genuinely awes me how they intuit complex architecture construction, and coordination off of *instinct*. Reshaping the land in such vast and creative ways. I swear, in a world where humans never evolved, these little guys would be on top some day.
