This video features the wildlife that has returned to our Beaver Dam in Cook Minnesota which is in the northern part of the state. We had a complete collapse of the original double decker monster dam in 2016. The dam was nine feet high then and collapsed due to heavy rain. No human interaction was involved. The beavers have rebuilt the dam to seven feet or so. This dam is still way short of the original structure.

The update we’ve all been waiting for
Years ago I would walk my dogs thru this one swampy area that had a walkway above the water. One day the walkway was under water because a bunch of limbs and sticks had wedged against one section. So I reached down and cleaned out enough so that the walkway would be exposed again. A week later, I came back with my dogs and it was under water again, so I removed the branches again. Another week goes by and I'm back and the walkway is not passible. So this time I was going to do a good job of removing the branches, I'm on my belly reaching down, and all of a sudden a beaver smacks their tail about 5 feet away from me. I'm from the city, I did not know about beavers. I think that beaver was waiting for the stupid human to come back on the weekend so it cold tell them to bugger off.
That hilarious.
So they built it again. It is amazing. 😊 Interesting to watch them coming and repairing it in between. What a beautiful sight.
The active building footage is amazing! I feel like a compilation video of all the shots of beavers working on the dam, in chronological order, would be really cool to watch. I'm also amazed at the original double-decker construction. They knew their dams were only good to a certain height, so in order to raise the overall height, they built multiple dams to raise it incrementally. Amazing!
The original double-decker construction amaze me too. Great peace of engineering.
I know I ain’t the only one who’s happy about this part 2!!!
Take a look at my latest 2021 update video

Haha makes for a good bobcat bridge lol
Such industry! Amazing creatures, beavers; they've redesigned vast regions of our planet, using nothing more than teeth, paws, & instinct!
Quite impressive. It’s amazingly strong, I can’t believe how much water it held back.
as long as it's shallow water, it can hold an ocean. it's the height of the water that makes the pressure
@@regnbuetorsk At 1:53 The original double decker dam removed some pressure, interesting when you think of it.
Brilliant piece of wildlife photography; thanks so much for installing the remote camera. Fantastic engineers that clearly impact on the community as witness by the use by the commuters!
This is really amazing to see. Kudos on the the excellent capture Rick. We have beavers in North Carolina and they can sure change your property and the environment.
I'm so invested in this dam now. I cant wait for future updates on the beavers! Tell them they're doing a good job for me
Thank you so much for for your compliment.

Take a look at some of my other videos

Loved seeing the cats together. Saw a nature documentary about the important role beavers play in ecosystem. Habitat declined and conditions worsened causing beavers to leave area. The entire habitat area declined as a result. They discovered the sounds of moving water attracted the beavers back to the area. Accomplished this by placing recorders emitting the sounds of running water. It worked. Beavers were drawn to area and started building dams. The ecosystem recovered and flourished once again. It was interesting. Similar to the reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone.
Amazing! Amazing! Thank you for leading me to this video. So heartwarming to see it back to where it was. So wonderful to see these hardworking beaver at work. Their level of intelligence is beyond understanding.
The dam is almost 7 years old and sittings at 9 feet. Fully restored. Last week Northern Minnesota got 8 to 12 inches of rain but the dam held. We were very concerned about another collapse! Wew! Saved by luck.
Thanks! Nice to see the progression.
Bounced here from the original damn collapse.
Impressive, thanks, best regards from Indiana.
From one nature lover to another, thank you
Beavers are so freaking cool!
Love Beavers. they are true water builders of dams.
Great update thanks boss.
Thank you
That rebuild would have cost those beavers so much OT :( - double shifts, working weekends - bloody nightmare!
I wonder if they had to get building permits, wear PPE, have tail gate safety meetings each morning, etc, etc.
@LYNDA We’re joking. We know who cut down the trees...
if only our workers had some of the DNA and work ethic of beavers…America would be great again
I would love to spend some time in that country with a canoe and tent!
Was there any fish in any of the Beaver ponds ? Great video, thumbs up and any new updates ? Thank you.
your property is like a beaver dream...
Very cool. I'm Australian, so pardon my ignorance. Are these dams multi-generational, or are beavers long-lived?
They are multi- generational .
It’s amazing what these animals can do
Beautiful
Did the beavers get a permit for that damn?
Great video. 👍
always hard at work even in the rain....
This is great
I wonder if the beavers have an EPA permit...
Dam takes all day just to get one branch in they are so dedicated
Amazing
very cool
the lone mound is their nest?
I think it is. In which case it’s called a beaver lodge.
that's fuckin dope if it is..those beavers are living their best lives
Rick Smith.
Thank you nice video !!! You said that no Beavers were hurt when the dam was lost I was wondering if I'm correct in thinking they knew it was going and had gotten out . It seems like they would have to know .
No they just hunkered down in their house as it did not get damaged.
@@ricksmith578 Is the structure near the middle of the pond their lodge?
I bet some good fishing or catfishing
👍
1:08 Nope. See you guys later.
I want to break it open!
huge favor..... if you live close to this dam could you observe if they come out of their lodge at anytime during the Sabbath, which is sunset Friday to sunset Saturday. A man filmed a group of them near him in California for 16 years and never caught them out of their lodges during that time. EVER! would be nice to know if others did the same..... Thanks and if it is a burden for you please forget it.. honest
you can search seventh day beavers to see info.....
@@willow9530 😲.
I like this kind of humor!
The answer has to be that he himself was not allowed to operate a camera during this hours...
who knew Beaver were the lost tribe.....
Is this welcomed behavior?
If not, then why not cull the beaver(s)?
One of his other videos he says the beaver dam was one of the reasons he bought the land but alot of people don't care for having beavers around because of this
