I do it almost every summer. Technically and legally I'm not allowed to manipulate my creek. I do cut and trim willow for many uses around the property, many times I find my pile has been moved into the creek and is now full of mud and stuck in the water. We had a drought lately and I think the beavers all moved into the mountains where someone made a reservoir.
Do you realize how redundant that sentence is? You "want to help a beaver make a damn to build one with a beaver". That's like saying you want to eat a bowl of cereal to eat some cereal. Redundant.
In that latter part, the beavers were introduced to the area to create a fur trade. So when it failed, now they have to be destroyed. As usual, it’s humans that caused this to begin with. The animals were just acting on instinct. Humans just need to leave animals alone and try not to meddle too much. We have brains. We can co-exist with animals and if we leave them alone for the most part, the ecosystem will eventually come into balance on its own.
They do it to make ponds. After the pond is built, they build their lodge. Once the lodge has been satisfactorily established, they can become Free-Masons. Any questions ?
@@Koda716 That's a good question and no they can't just build the lodge. Think of the pond as a duel purpose security system and climate control device. The lodge itself is built to have an underwater entrance. This creates a sealed habitat within the lodge to control the temperature for the babies/family. The underwater entrance also keeps out other animals who would prey on the beavers. Without having the pond at a set level, the lodge wouldn't work properly. If the water level sinks too low, the entrance is now out in the open. Animals can climb in the entrance and it is open to the outside atmosphere and temperature. By building the dam in the first place, it backs the water up to a controllable level by the beaver. If they want the water level a bit higher, they block the dam off more. If they want it a little lower, they remove some of the blocking sticks and let the level lower some. It's a constant battle by the beavers to use the dam to control the level of the pond. By having the pond at a set level, it determines where they build their lodge. So it's a linked system that creates their habitat. They can't have one without the other. The pond is a critical piece of infrastructure to maintaining safety in their home and the ability to grow their family.
@@Koda716 yeah I can see how their presence can be annoying to some people with certain types of land. They can change the entire layout of the land if they decide to move into your local area. There are ways to look at it in the positive way though, where they are responsible for creating an entirely fresh and vibrant eco system in the right place. In places where they are native the food chain keeps things in control. They create a life cycle of fish and water based creatures with the pond, and then other wildlife visit the area more often because a dedicated water source is there. So you get deer, moose, wolves and all sorts of other mammals. Then you get the birds and hawks that come visit and eventually snakes, mice, rats and other insects around the water source. So having the whole ecosystem surviving around the water source can be a magical experience on your land. It seems to be when the beavers get into a non-native environment where there are no apex predators to kill them where they get out of control. They can destroy entire sections of forest within months if their population isn't controlled. So I can totally see how they can be assholes in certain circumstances.
If Beavers were still the size of bears, I bet that no one would be fool enough to mess with their dams. You knock a beaver dam down and the beaver shows up and makes you put back every stick. Stands over you while you do it.
I am from New Zealand so we don't have Beavers. Not in our wild bush anyway. I think this animal is absolutely amazing. Look how intelligent it is. I guess, they could be pretty annoying if they're in your country and decide to move into a nearby river. Especially when they end up creating a lake, after having made a pond. But what an intelligent display of engineering this animal knows, from a very young age. I'm so fascinated by them. Not to mention their ability to fell trees with, what looks like, so much ease. Not only do they affect ecosystems, but they create an entirely new ecosystem. By creating all that new growth. And a brand new habitat.
I agree. Plus the high-pitched flute should be pitched into a dumpster. A great deal of effort went into the making of this video. Didn't anyone in a supervisory capacity notice anything about the quality being compromised by the music? What a stunning oversight.
The original title of the documentary is: "Natural Kingdom: Super Beaver". That's why they keep mentioning "Super Beaver" throughout the documentary. The title on RUclips is just a bit weird.
At around 8:30, it's stated that "While both European and Canadian beavers have evolved, only the Canadian beaver has maintained the ability to create lodges and dams." But a quick Google search shows that this is categorically false. European beavers build lodges and dams.
To the farmer struggling with the beavers breaking his fence for building materials; try a metal fence. Just, why fight it so hard when a solution could be that simple? I know they're likely not going to see this, but it just boggles me, to be honest.
Years ago I watched a documentary that addressed the issue of blocked culverts. One of the individuals who had to unblock them found that if he played the sound of running water the beavers would move to that spot on their own
@scottfoster2487 not really, they may be helping downstream with flooding on floodplain but when they dam up areas like you said it creates wetland which is caused by flooding
Beavers are huge preventers of forest fires. So they create ecosystems and protect them. Very informative documentary, but the foreground music was obnoxiously overbearing.
It’s a well known fact that beavers are a tremendous builder of not only dams…but entire ecosystems. The do so much for local watersheds and their entire ecosystem.
Wasn’t expecting to watch a 45 minute documentary about beavers today but here we are
Doing this instead of watching 45 minutes of documentaries about beavers if you know what I mean
Dude, same, but I had a question and RUclips delivered :D
I watched a great one yesterday and here I am today watching this one. Beavers are a truly amazing animal.
I had massive hangover, and I'm watching beavers building dams 6 hour straight
😂
It’s so inspiring that such small creatures work together to build such giant structures like the Hoover Dam
Lol, the Hoover Dam!
amazing. isnt it?
And now it generates electricity to power their beaver lodges for the harsh winters in Nevada!
The Beaver Dam.
@@Music4DaSol😂😂😂😂
This is probably going to sound stupid to everyone but I've always wanted to help a beaver make a damn to build one with a beaver
Who hasn't?
You’re absolutely correct. Sounds stupid.
I do it almost every summer. Technically and legally I'm not allowed to manipulate my creek. I do cut and trim willow for many uses around the property, many times I find my pile has been moved into the creek and is now full of mud and stuck in the water.

Our species is vile and disgusting, and doesn't deserve to continue existing... placing the world's ecosystems in great peril.
Yea and it sucks that they kill them now
why not introduce wolf as the new predator of the area?
Shut up
Shame on these South Americans. Killing beavers. La miyerda.
They do it to make ponds. After the pond is built, they build their lodge. Once the lodge has been satisfactorily established, they can become Free-Masons. Any questions ?
So from now on anytime conspiracy theorists say "They" we know they are talking about the illuminati beavers
Yeah but ponds for what purpose. Couldn't they just build the lodge and be good lol

When I was a kid my brother and I used to go down to the beaver pond in the woods in back of my grand parents home. It was a magical place.
That paleontologist seems like a cool guy. Gets happy for a tooth. Keep up the good work sir.
I love how happy the guy was finding a stick and half a tooth 😁👍
i've been binge watching beaver docos, i can't get enough! beavers are just awesome!
Beavers are now my favorite animal
Same!
These beavers are now my second favorite beavers. 🦫
Here here
Such great music, such great shot, awesome documentary. Watched with a smile on my face the whole time

😂😂
Beavers we could learn from... they live an honest life. They build work harder than most animals.
Harder than most people
Agreed!
These animals are incredible and super for sure!
Beavers are sooooooooooooooo adorable! These are the kinda of individuals that you want to hire for your business....lol😁😁😁😁😁
Amazing documentary. The beavers getting their own back on the human race who continue in their ignorance and greed. Thank you.
im sure the forest feels the same way you do
That owl's face at 1:22 was like, "Uhhh could you fuckin' NOT?!"
Beavers in there right home produce the right habitats for many species of animals, fish, plants and other wildlife including birds etc...
We need more Beavers. Save our Beavers. Save our wild America.
I am from New Zealand so we don't have Beavers. Not in our wild bush anyway.

Music overlay as the narrator speaks is a bit much....🤔
I liked the content but between the music drowning out the narrator and that obnoxious opening it was kind of hard to watch.

His mom got him a new casio
Disagree
As a Canadian, I have to say that the guy showing the giant beaver at the beginning sounded like the most stereotypical Canadian, I'm lost for words.
The original title of the documentary is: "Natural Kingdom: Super Beaver". That's why they keep mentioning "Super Beaver" throughout the documentary. The title on RUclips is just a bit weird.
Why do people insist on playing music in foreground? Can't hear a word with the music.
Beavers: *sees river*
Also beavers: OUR RIVER
NEED DAM
At around 8:30, it's stated that "While both European and Canadian beavers have evolved, only the Canadian beaver has maintained the ability to create lodges and dams." But a quick Google search shows that this is categorically false. European beavers build lodges and dams.
Also Argentina isn’t any colder than Canada, casting doubt on the greasy fur theory.
I don't know why they're spreading misinformation like that. It's a known fact too.
"Nice beaver!"
"Thanks, i just had it stuffed."
- The Naked Gun
Nice but the music behind was to high.hard to hear the narator
I love these guys. I love all creatures
Brilliant love the beavers , we can learn a lot from animals May the yunas bless all of them Amen 🙏
Humans destroy more trees than beavers can ever chew. Leave those beavers alone.
Tell that to South America. They are both good and a pest in Canada as well.
Is there a copy of this documentary without the music, so as to hear what is being said?
Water stream: _Exists_
Beaver: "WE NEED TO BUILD A WALL!!"
Far better than human engineers,we can't even come close to these guys!!!
i learned a lot in this upload. thnx Real Wild
Our pleasure, Scott
Music is too loud.
This was great. I knew Russia had beaver issues, but had NO idea South America did as well thank you for sharing this.🖤🇨🇦
There are amazing animals. Very creative animals love this documentary.

Yeah, but i think they are to sheep for that ^
@Aaron Loos That's true. From the way the farmer was telling his story though, it didn't sound to me like that part bothered him all that much..
Let another Emu war start but this time with beavers
Years ago I watched a documentary that addressed the issue of blocked culverts. One of the individuals who had to unblock them found that if he played the sound of running water the beavers would move to that spot on their own
A really great documentary, IF it only lost the over-powering, ever-present, totally annoying music.
I gave up halfway through.
gone . . .
totally agree, it's about a Beaver not Mozart
Did anyone see the green marshes, that resulted from beaver dams, in the middle of burned out forests?
Beavers are like real life Rust pro's, they build in water and use underwater air locks.
Anyone else shit themselves at 37:01 😅 ?? great video
i dont watch animal documentaries . but once i watch a beaver cutting a large in fb, made me curious to know more about them. and im here
Man, I love beavers ❤️🦫
Beavers actually prevent flooding by creating massive ponds with large wetlands.
Not true.
Well except they are literally doing the opposite
@@kylewood8448 Your poorly educayed pn the Beaver,
@scottfoster2487 not really, they may be helping downstream with flooding on floodplain but when they dam up areas like you said it creates wetland which is caused by flooding
Literally an ad every 5 min
Fascinating!
We live in a wonderfully AWesum world ❤❤❤❤
"Perfectly designed"; well said my friend. They are indeed 'Designed'.
-by natural selection.
I was walking in the trails in seen like 4 beaver dams I think they are cool how they build there homes
I love beavers!
Phrasing
Really good and informative, but damn that audio mixing.
Music louder than the narrator and narrator louder than the translation 😂 great documentary though
Why the voice over is mixed so low and the music so high in this video?
Really good video, amazing! Thank you for putting an effort in this channel I learned so much from you already. Stay healthy ☀️
Your music is too loud
They would likely be a blessing for the amazon. They could assist in the reforestation and slow the water preventing rivers from running dry.
Amazon would have been fine if we as humans didn’t chronically destroyed it. So what you’re proposing is just a substitute solution
I only planned on watching a few minutes, I ended up watching entire video. I'm now fascinated with them now. They could damn off entire ocean
Music so loud! Why? It would be nice to hear the words…… so many programs put on loud music, turning us into idiots…….
How cool, I used to go to Elk Island every week, I lived about 45 mins frow where I lived.
You lived 45 minutes from where you lived? I happen to live right around the corner from where I live.
@@jamisonburress1220 I used to own a house in Andrew
Absolutely incredible creatures. Great documentary.
So beautiful
Hard to hear the narrator over the music...
Did y'all really have to use the LOUDES most OBNOXIOUS sound you could find as the background music at 13:38..?
Amazing creature.
It is worth more than a million dollar movie to watch, for me
Grew up next to a beaver swamp(s). Loud chewers.
Come out mostly at night
The background music is so loud!
Beavers make me proud to be Canadian 😂
Very intelligent animal
This is what you end up watching when you have good weed
I literally just finished a stick, turned this on and saw your comment. 😂😂
@@TristanLangdon 🤣🤣 thanks for the comment
Thank you😂
I love beavers
🦫
The narrator's voice sounds like Andrew Robinson who played the character Garak on Star Trek: Deep Space 9.
This land was given to my family for their missionary work with Indians-🙈👌
Amazing Animals
thanks for the documentary
What year is this from?
I loved the Music
The music overpowers the narrator’s voice not good, but good education.
Beavers are huge preventers of forest fires. So they create ecosystems and protect them. Very informative documentary, but the foreground music was obnoxiously overbearing.
I think my new favorite animal is a beaver hawk.
Music is louder than the narrator
The bgm is too loud...
There so ugly-cute!lol but they are very important to the ecosystem!great documentary!🐻
Bad ass Beaver's 😊🦫
Can I have a comment I'd like you to tell you to shut your music down cuz I can't hear your commentary
People hate beavers and it's sad. Greetings from Finland.
MY FAVORITE ANIMAL!!!!!
It’s a well known fact that beavers are a tremendous builder of not only dams…but entire ecosystems. The do so much for local watersheds and their entire ecosystem.
Whats with "eager beaver" ?? What does it mean?
Some Indians thought the Beaver was a God like animal. A master creator of the Earth and its lands...
Amazing
The music is too loud! It is difficult to hear the narrator.
I never thought I was interested in beavers until I watched that beaver gnaw on Glynis’ Back 40.
please donnt harm the beavers.thank u. god bless you.
Can i harm them back, if they harm me ?
Super special ... 👊👊👊
3:43 ; What is a drone for $400😂😂😂
Tha cây 🌲, cũi tôi nghiệp bé dễ thương đáng yêu quá đi
couldnt watch..music TOO loud!!!
Just by the beaver being able to regurgitate it's own feces makes this animal perfect for adaptation, like no other.
