@@the5THofNOV Might be a typo but there actually is no standard native behavior or culture there languages and cultures vary wildly and Empires and Civilizations grew and fell and warred and modified the environment well before the later Europeans came, the Eastern part of North American Natives actually had and have a large amount of European DNA from over 10,000 years ago. And thus perhaps one tribal group hunted them to extinction or local area environment for a bit became beaver hostile. And the environment there is semi desert now. So it quite possible the local beavers were gone long ago or again it was a typo. The Buffalo made the areas the plans above Texas and kept the trees away and that might include that area of Texas. The Great Planes were treeless a huge part of the middle of the country hostile to beaver. But now that humans are there and the massive buffalo herds gone humans planted trees to protect soil for farms and to look nice. And you need trees for the beaver.

@@Weirdisjustabrownandyellowword Though there have been many challenges we still have most of our Fauna even if some of them are endangered already. The Kenya Wild life services have been fighting hard against the poachers and the traffickers of Ivory, Rhino horns and other trophies, the government has been so careful with this struggle that it burns all tusks and horns that it confiscated from the criminals and those that they take from the animals that die naturally so as to ensure zero tolerance to such trade. The rhinos themselves have two bodyguards at all times whenever they go esp in the wild coz they are very endangered. In fact one of the species of the rhinos the northern white rhino is going extinct as we speak the last alive being incapable of breeding as they are old and female the last male just recently kicked it. encroachment on the animal habitat especially by over development of the spaces we shared before. This include, roads, railways, towns and esp farms. There is no easy way of solving this problem since most of the affected species are not the big five or other big animals that thrive in the national park and other reserves but the small ones that hardly anyone thinks about such as squirrels, small monkeys some birds and many more. At the moment the best you can do in my opinion is to communicate and bring about the awareness of the harmful trade in trophies of all kind and fight big game hunting tourism because even if we do our best here in kenya, there are countries that engaged in this business here in Africa and around the world. The biggest trophy takers are western while the asians take mostly ivory and rhino horns. Also fences. that just my thing but I have come to hate them very much as I have watched them harm animals both domestic and wild very much.

Im more concerned about how it will effect other wildlife that have settled in those areas(that are potentially/probably gonna get flooded) If its desperately needed then sure, but if its just to reintroduce a species...

The ponds and meadowlands the beavers create act as firebreaks, where open streams are not wide enough to do that function. If you've ever squelched your way across a meadow, it's quite clear why nothing there will burn! On the margins of the meadows, trees grow quite a bit faster because of the consistent ground water level.

I think this would also create a lot of new jobs. Imagine every region having their own beaver rangers. Where I live beavers have been steadily increasing in numbers for years. It's awesome. There are always people worried about the damage to farmland they might cause. If you let them roam unregulated, that's a valid concern. But if you, like they mentioned in the video, manage them by relocating some in overpopulated areas and by altering some of the damns, they are actually damn good at increasing the quality of the farmland close to them. Like they said, water even during dry periods. They basically more than pay for themselves and the jobs they create also strengthen the economy. More than some politicians achieve, the Beavers definitely get my next vote.

I hope more farmers expand their minds like the fellow on the video. so what if a farm loses an acre here or there it probably was not greatly productive anyway. The waterlands will protect from flooding lower down the valley. Perhaps farmers and insurance companies who previously had to come up with millions of pounds compensation flood payouts could strike a deal over beaver dam loss to agriculture.

The gastrointestinal issues they cause are referred to colloquially as "beaver fever" here in Canada - despite not having a fever associated with the infection. Nevertheless, we clearly love our Canadian beavers. The hat trade did massive damage to them here, and all but wiped them out in Europe.

What do you do to protect them? Or are you only making a random comment simply bc you like them? That’s how it comes across.. don’t get me wrong, I wholeheartedly feel that they’re good for the environment/ ecosystem & create wetlands that allow many animals and plant life to thrive and survive and they definitely do a lot of good .. yes , they can create issues , but as long as things are in balance , that’s where things thrive and remain positive … I happen to think beavers are cool animals, I’ve never seen from my point of view , anything about them that made me have any negative opinions whatsoever about them , I love watching documentaries on beavers , I love the sounds they make when they’re kits , the work ethic attributed to a beaver is a nice one lol , they’re just overall really fascinating animals, that I’d agree with you on 😂… But do you ever hear those people who simply throw out words like oh we must protect such n such at all costs , bc they just throw those words out , yet they do nothing other then think something they’re referring to is cute or amusing Somehow? Not that you’re one of those , 😂 it just did have that element to it , as like I said , when you’re talking about wanting other people to love and protect something as much as / or just as you do , just curious do you actually do a thing to actually protect these animals or are you throwing words out , Just casually saying that? And not to be rude or negative or mean in my asking that, I genuinely was wanting to know.. and if you do take steps to protect these animals, I respect that, that’s cool .. what type of steps does that include ,‘I’d wanna know just out of curiosity & not asking in some sense of like expecting you or anyone else to have to prove something, I’d genuinely like to know. I don’t do anything to actually protect beavers ,lol .. I just happen to appreciate wildlife and have a desire to observe them / their behavior / social cues etc. and enjoy the blessings Gods provided in all of the amazing and beautiful creation that were given such a beautiful responsibility to care for and yes, also to protect & it’s astoundingly amazing to me , being able to observe the intricate ways all living beings have in such unique, yet also , such similar ways as one another , as were all connected in sharing of certain traits that are just really special and cool and while of course I’d say that us human Beings have been created to a different and higher standard, that we are in a position not only at the top of the food chain but also , just that we are ultimately the living beings that have been given dominion over all other living beings and everything works in this world in a cyclical way, of giving life, sustaining it, providing for each and every link in the chain , that there’s a time and season for everything & for every living being , a cycle and season that one goes through in its lifetime , I feel like This world is a completely amazing thing/ place , where every single thing that could ever be needed has been created/ provided and the intricacy behind the whole process is mind blowing awesome … just seeing how new lands can erupt out of volcanic activity, islands just pulled up out of the ocean , how wildlife discovers and inhabits them and plants seeds that eventually thrive and grow into lands filled with so many various species of living things, how those things work together to support and encourage life , how cyclical weather patterns affect the entire world from currents to winds to geographical features , how all work together to provide stability to support life, it’s astoundingly complex and amazing !!! I could study and observe and enjoy such things all day long! That’s likely why I only view wildlife documentaries whenever I even use this site lol. I literally only view wildlife documentaries or sleep sound’s especially of snowfall , each night for relaxing and stress relief and to assist with sleeping .. I have many other hobbies and interests outside of that, but in terms of what I’ll watch online or tv , this is pretty much it 😂.. I’ll also enjoy programs with preaching the gospel & Bible study type aids that I find helpful and encouraging , but yeah, in terms of my being fascinated with nature and wildlife , I pretty much have enjoyed a plethora of content related to wildlife to enjoy , along with studying more in-depth into various species and whatnot… anyway , it would be interesting to know in terms of how one goes about protecting these animals, like where to begin / what programs may be available etc. , are there any options for people locally in their areas to get involved , etc. I’d just be interested to know more about it , if ya don’t mind.

Koalas and other iconic species once common have become endangered. I would never have imagined this when I was 30 years old. But here we are. I see our remnant bushland or native forests being cleared and our natural wetlands filled in for housing developments. Low lying flood prone areas for housing, how stupid are we? Local councils approve these developments in support of their developer mates. There are massive loopholes in the legislation that is supposed to protect our remnant forests and wetlands. This enables these unscrupulous councils to develop at any cost. Yes Australia is facing its biggest biodiversity crisis yet. But we humans seem insatiable in our quest for more and more. There is plenty of lip service to biodiversity conservation in Australia but that is where it stops. Simply talk.

I live in the municipality of Chatham Kent in Ontario Canada. Specifically where I live around Rondeau Bay, many of our low wetlands have been destroyed by damming with industrial waste and draining for seed corn. Much of the native wetland peat soils have blown away or been sold for fuel .Beavers are now beginning to reestablish themselves in their native ranges, but are being promoted as the enemy of agriculture, even though no flooding, or any damage has occurred. The people doing this called themselves farmers, but they, raped the land and in a few decades, destroyed soils that took thousands of years to form in many cases, thanks to Beavers.

I live in Canada, and it is pretty common to see beavers here. Even just walking along the river you could see them swimming along pretty well anywhere. I really value the wildlife here, even though many consider them pests I always like seeing skunks, raccoons, deer, beaver, rabbits, and other little animals. It makes you feel like the land is actually alive, that there is something to care for. When I'm in a barren land or big city, I think "here we didn't care, and now everything is gone". I think having cities is ok but there needs to be a balance between wild/well-managed land and industrious human territory.

Beautiful!!!!

I wonder if people with farmland in beaver flood plains could try growing plants that favor growing in water such as rice and lotus roots. Might be a good way to diversify the foods the UK produces

I think on the long term farmers should just let the land adjacant to rivers unused where the beavers activities impact it. Also it would reduce pollution ond eutrophication of water bodies that are directy near agricultural land.

What beautiful and smart animal, nature is beatiful in his creations.

Beavers are interesting animals; hotwired to build. A beaver raised since birth by humans will use whatever's available to build dam-like structures.

i'm from East Tennessee. for years and years i used to put my tiny, well camouflaged kayak into a beaver made lake near my house in the Smokies. beavers took a little creek and turned it into the most biodiverse place i've ever had the pleasure of being. i include the park itself in that. beavers, otters, eagles, bears, deer, ducks, local birds, migratory birds, muskrats, so many owls, so many hawks, bobcats, minks, foxes.... as a matter of fact, the only animal i didn't see there was an elk. i've been a wildlife and landscape photographer for a very long time.. long before it was thought of as "cool" to be one. of all the places i've ever taken my camera, i've said "i can't believe i just saw that" out loud to myself in that little beaver lake more than any other place times a thousand. in 2019 the dam broke because of a flood. and because of the amount of tourism traffic and move-ins building around that little lake which nobody used for kayaking except for me and my kids, the beavers moved into the river and didn't rebuild that dam. it broke my heart. it still breaks my heart. and the best part of that little lake was the fact that it was built by the beavers who lived in the lodge in the middle of it. God i loved those little animals so much. i hope their offspring still inhabit the Little River but, who knows. there are thousands and thousands of people floating down that river on a daily basis now with all the new traffic to the park. i sure wish people hadn't found out via social media that outside exists and would head back to the malls they came from!

More important than introducing more beavers, imo, is learning from them. Beavers can only do so much, after all. Expecting them to mitigate the flooding all throughout the land is a bit of lazy thinking, imo. Much better, and faster, if folks start taking it upon themselves to build what we call Beaver Dam Analogs. There are plenty of videos on KZread about their making and how they work, and they can be built very quickly if you're building on a small scale. The key is seeing that every fold and crease in the land is naught but a gutter for when the rain comes. It might be dry at the moment, but we all know it'll soon fill as the next storm comes. So build a small BDA across it. Build dozen of them. Something as simple as some sticks and leaves kicked into the thing can make a huge difference in slowing down the run-off and spreading it out so it has time to percolate down into the ground. And this is something that anyone can do with only the material around them.

Its been too long coming, how it took so long to get this started after so many years pushing for common sense! Great work everyone on the right side of nature 👍🏾

very beautiful......

Great segment. Another reminder that every part of nature has its role to play. The hand of God, the ability for nature to heal itself if man takes his hands off the scale, and allows it to do its work. Simply beautiful

The best solution for draining some amount of water in beaver dam is BELL SIPHONS can reduce water without BEAVER noticing just put it in some part of the dam which affects the flooding of farm areas. I love nature and my dream job is to create a sustainable city that is close to nature here in our city. And watching these videos gives me a deeper desire to make our city a nature city.
