A huge beaver dam taken down by excavator. I removed the beaver dam with an excavator from a big beaver pond. Draining the beaver pond with the excavator. Beaver bond was on both sides of the highway connected with the culvert pipe. Beaver dam removal! Big beaver flood and beaver damage.
Road service ordered a beaver dam removal of us because beavers raised the water level so high that it will have an impact to the road dam. We took the excavator and removed the dam. All the water flowed onto my estate. Big beaver flood and beaver damage.

@Bill1764 4 года назад

The best way to control beavers is to dig a channel through the dam. Then place a perforated metal culvert in the channel extending maybe 20 feet in front and behind the dam. The beavers cannot hear the running water and will not try to plug up the culvert !! Try it, it works great !!

@AFHProjects 4 года назад

Thanks.

@@AFHProjects It was about 100 years ago I think, these guys from England, I think the royal society, went to Canada to study the beaver, they were convinced beavers were the smartest animals in the world, because of how well they built, and chose the locations for their damns, they were so disappointed when they figured out the beavers weren't that smart, it's all instinct.

@user-ge2qn6gp4o 6 месяцев назад

Seriously? They cause massive damage with their flooding and destroy ecosystems that were downstream before they blocked the river.

@terryhatcher9644 2 месяца назад

They can in certain circumstances but not when they flood farm fields and roads because the are overpopulated in Lithuania. The 1960s reintroduction of the beavers has been way too successful with limited predators now and the Soviet construction of the drainage systems under fields and the drainage canals.

Beavers are building dams to hold water level high so the lodge entrances are under the water. And if the water level is high they can move around easily and transport wood for food and dams.
