I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Like most Londoners, that beaver has gone posh. The picture in the OP shows it eating guacamole, rather then traditional beaver fare.

"We have seen the developments the beavers are [involved in] and the improvements they have made to the wetland area."

loving beaver developers.

And I thought they just made dams so they could catch fish, thereby killing trees and interfering with the flow of watercourses.

It's good a few beavers are back though, because cute.

Beavers are herbivores.

They dam waterways in order to create stagnant water where they build their houses and eat plants.

It's already been covered that they're herbivores but modern thinking considers beaver damming behavior a good thing for the most part. They change ecosystems in a way that a lot more things can move in. There was some town in California that 2000ish stopped discouraging beaver dams and as a result had river otters move back in for the first time in like a century.

They're also stupid as gently caress, apparently you can just put a book box playing river sounds out in the woods and beavers will build a dam on it
