- Опубликовано: 13 ноя 2020
- This wildlife rehabber welcomed a baby beaver into her home. He loved building dams in her house and swimming in her bathtub. When some pond builders got wind of his story, they offered to build him his very own pond. Watch him dive in his new pond for the first time!

Beavers really see flowing water and think “dam someone’s gotta put a stop to this”
Like the dam pun you added
this was the best comment
this comment had a good flow to it. some of the others just seem to stream on and on.
This is criminally underrated LMFAOO
Omg so good
We loved creating this for JB!
Awesome Job!
Your pond looks amazing, Sir. I love the natural yet safe structure. May God bless you and your business!
Right on, Greg :D Keep up the good work!
Good stuff, Greg!
pond looked wonderful! keep up the stunning work! loved the truly natural feel, i'm sure JB adored it! brilliant!!

You guys are really incredible. That little beaver is in heaven and can thank the pool angels for his wonderful outdoor space!!
That should have come with a warning label of cuteness overload....those little sounds. And also educational on how just because it's cute and orphaned, doesn't mean you can make a wild animal a pet. A very patient and caring woman. And now he'll go on to educate kids about the importance of animals and the ecosystem. Way to go 👏 🙌 👍
Hello how are you doing today hope you are having a wonderful time
more beaver cuteness less politics and the world shall see everlasting peace ✌️
Exactly. I'm often scared that these videos encourage people in countries where it's legal like the US to get exotic pets. Exotic pets usually don't fare well in houses, so they often end up being abandoned or put to sleep.
You don’t think he‘s a pet? I know she says he licensed as an education animal or whatever, but honestly, I can‘t tell the difference between that and how a pet would be treated.
@@danielbyrne3319 Please leave... I'm tired of ur stupid comments on women. If u want 1 , go 2 a different website if ur that hardup 4 1. U r in need of help.
Honestly this Beaver is living the life. He has a house without anyone trying to push him out and all the food he wants delivered daily. I know they should be in the wild, but he's much better off and I bet he'll live longer. He's one of the lucky ones.
It's so sweet how well Justin is loved and cared for. He looks like such a joy to be around. I'm also glad that his former caretaker still gets to see him after he was moved to the center. She's a good beaver mother.
What a delightful story. You have been so kind and patient with Justin, to give him a more natural life and help him live like a beaver even though he doesn’t have a beaver family. 💖💖💖
That is so so precious and so is he
I know! He is the cutest! Haha 😍
When he saw his new pond he said: DAM!

"Thrown" out of the house? That's a bit dramatic. It was for the animals well being. He's clearly well cared for.

Until you dropped your phone and a beaver broke it
JB is not a pet, gives him a fancy title to show he is not a pet, then treats him like the best pet ever.
The beaver is not a pet in the sense that a dog is a pet. Beavers, like most creatures are wild. Dogs/cats are domesticated. The beaver still has its wild instincts(like all non domestic animals)that do not go away. Same with Foxes. Though they can be pets they retain some of their wildness
@@DirectorOfChaos9292 Good points :) Some foxes have actually been domesticated over a thirty year breeding project IIRC. They were part of a famous study on canine behaviour that revealed individual foxes have genes that make them more afraid of humans or not. After a bunch of generations of breeding the least fearful foxes they stabilized a domesticated lineage :D
@@MichaelSplatkins But, they cannot breed out 100% of the Fox's wildness. They can only be domesticated to a point. They will keep certain behaviors that are hardwired into their brain
@@DirectorOfChaos9292 For sure! The number of generations it'll take for optimal domestication could take many more generations, yet.
But even dogs and cats still have wild instincts that unexpectedly arise from time to time. It's incredible how much sway individual genetic make up has on them even after so many millennia of being bred for placidity, compliance and affection.
@@DirectorOfChaos9292 Indeed. Technically house cats still retain much more of their instincts to this day than dogs because they only started being domesticated about 8,000 years ago vs dogs 14,000-20,000. A couple dozen popular breeds of cat today have actually only been bred for specific desired traits in the lest 100 years in fact. So I imagine it will certainly take a few more centuries before foxes enter the realm of true domestication. Might be different for herbivores(faster) as domesticated rabbits started about 2600 years ago but cannot survive in the wild with any success although gerbils have only been domesticated for a little over a century can fair as well as one can being a gerbil(2-3 years) in the wild.

Michael Scott : "That's what she said"
Comments never let me down!
So are we just not doing phrasing any more?
I'm sure she is. ;)
Well, you know what happens when you're not...
Ah ... Here it is ... was looking this one !
At 3:44 my mom always told me that when an animal sucks on a blanket like that, that it was taken from it's mom to soon.
Well it was an orphan
Also is sometime just a habit. My border collie pup that we got at 9 weeks still suckles and she’s now 7 yo. But I suppose the animal was an orphan so may exhibit the suckling behaviour due to missing out on that critical time with its mother.
My mom always said the same thing! Which I think is true because me any my mom adopted many street cats that didn't have any mom and they always sucked our pinky or a blanket (they still do)
It's looks to be either a bit or an instinct
True, and sadly they never seem to outgrow that need. ☹️
I think it wonderful that these people came together for JB don't stop being amazing angels in disguise. JB you are so beautiful I have always loved beavers. Thank you for all you do and for be his family
There are Angels Among Us. You and all the people who have saved this precious baby. You are all Angels. God bless you. ❤
Rivers: *exists*
Beavers: “I’m gonna go ahead and stop you right there”

"we can't have that now can we"
JB definately needs companionship. Since they are extremely social and live in tight family units, surely there are other beavers that are in the same predicament as JB and be united!!
Exactly what I'm thinking. There's enough space as well to introduce more orphaned beavers and have them all live together (if they get on of course)
I would think that they are aware that a companion is needed.... and stop calling me Shirley :))

The coolest thing I ever saw was at a man-made pond a few miles from my home. It was stocked with fish And I was fishing there quietly one day. There was a beaver dam nearby and the Beavers came out to work on their house. There was splashing near the dam and I thought it was fish. One of the adult beavers swam out and brought a log part way back to the dam and I wasn't sure why it didn't bring it the whole way. Well I soon found out! The splashing was the baby beavers. The adult brought the baby out to the log and they pushed it to the Beaver dam together. It was teaching the baby what to do! Coolest thing I ever saw!!
@L1 it really was!!
That's awesome. Beavers are super-intelligent and industrious...Canada couldn't have picked a better species with which to be associated. I've seen beavers many times, but never the whole family at once. Usually just one beaver swimming at the surface of a lake is all you get (although one time I was in the right place at the right time, standing at the end of a floating dock on a VERY clear lake, and a beaver swam in from the middle of the lake, staying about 3 feet underwater - he was sleek and streamlined and using his tail for propulsion - anyway, he went right beneath my feet under the dock, and to the bank where I guess he had a little protected hideout).
I think beavers are incredible...they're one of the only non-human animals that intentionally engineers their own environment at such a large scale to make it more suitable for their purposes. Lots of species do this unintentionally (just a fact of evolutionary happenstance), but beavers know what they want their habitat to look like, and they do what it takes to make it like that. It's a shame this characteristic gets them into so much trouble with humans. There's a place I visit where beavers have been repeatedly damming up a culvert running under a gravel road to raise the level of a swamp to their liking (a goal which unfortunately has the side effect of washing out the road)...they've been shot and trapped (probably almost 100 beavers have died in their fight to raise this swamp's water levels over the last 4 decades), their dams have been destroyed (often with dynamite!)...but more beavers just keep on coming back. I am happy to report that the beavers WON this long war though...people have finally given up trying to have a road at this location!
However, wouldn't it be nice if we just let beavers be beavers, and chose to adapt to THEM, rather than force them to adapt to US?
@@VoIcanoman Indeed -- we could learn SOOOOOO much from them!
@@VoIcanoman Exactly. Humans are the worst species on the planet. This woman is a beautiful soul. If only more of the human species was like her.
