It looks like you need to take a shovel with you when you go out there looking for the dams. It would make your life a whole lot easier. Just a suggestion. Good video 🤙😎🇦🇺
Hey there! Its Fran Fine! Im glad your more determined than that mud! It was thick & compacted! Great job! I know the beavers are gonna be mad at you! Lol! Much love from Henderson Ga USA
Don’t know where you are, but in Texas there are always water moccasins (also known as cotton mouths) in and around beaver dams. We don’t climb around on them without a firearm!
Before you start tearing out beaver dams you should establish the reason you are doing so. Just because it is there is not sufficient. Beaver dams are very beneficial.
In these areas with a lot of grass, I wonder if a pitchfork or mattock might be helpful? Kind of loosen up that hard-packed mud, maybe? I have no idea, I just know from gardening that those can be helpful sometimes.
while I understand the reasons for dam removal, I also think of the environment. Beavers are good to hold the water so that when drought happens its not so bad. The one stream looks to be tiny. Will the animals be able to still get enough water?
I really enjoy watching your videos. Do you think it would help if you invested in a pair of waders? Then you would be protected from the water up to your chest. Also maybe a shovel would help with the grasses. Just a suggestion. Keep up the good work.
I can never understand why everyone doing beaver dam removals on RUclips seem obsessed with potato rakes. (I wonder if Post10 started the trend 😅) The tines are so thin that you can't put your full strength behind it without risking at minimum bending the tines, if not snapping them off entirely. A garden fork has much thicker tines and can take a beating much better, albeit the handle is usually shorter than a rake.
Why are you trying to drain the pond? Did the natural resourses people tell you to? I understand if you bought a property and then found out 1/8 of it was beaver pond you might be pissed but just destroying their habitat is a really poor reason. You will never beat them without killing them all. My buddy tried for 15 years and they always won in the end. He thought he had killed them off a d for a couple of years all was quiet. Then one morning the water rose again. The fur traders almost erradicated them up here in Canada but recent studies there are more now than ever. Nice try!!
@jaxbronson9734 Not only beavers but all the aquatic life in the pond and higher life forms that drink from it. The ponds act as filters; slowing the water flow so the solids settle out. Eventually new fertile land is formed.
Hey Folks And Welcome Or Welcome Back 👋🏻
Good job. You should add a Spade type shovel to your arsenal, it will help you get through those roots and hard mud. Again looking good.
Please go back & show us how it looks drained! Thanks! Much love from Henderson Ga USA
The beavers will fill that whole up in one night.
Good morning everyone ☀️😊☕️ always a satisfying video
As always, thank you for this days clearing, great water flow, Jonathan. See you on the next! 🙂👍🇺🇸

That was a tough dam to take apart 👍 great work getting the water flowing fox 🦊 😊
Love your introduction... "Gotta get this greenery out before getting wood!" Picks up two pieces of wood 😂
Thank you for a great video ❤
Wow 😮how 🤔 😳 many beavers 🦫 😳 are there 50 or more 😳 🤔. Great job Jonny 🎉🎉🎉❤❤😊
Parts of the dam are old, because there's grass growing in it.
Thanks for a fabulous binge! Your channel has been a fabulous find and I look forward to future current content. 🦊Riki2Tails
Great job my Man!

Did the beavers abandon the dam or were they removed? This dam looks really old.
Goodness, these guys are rock stars at their workmanship lol.

U should get you a small shovel for these hard to rake ones

See you a few more times back here 😮😢😢😢
Your moves give a whole new meaning to the name river dance, but you did a good job
That’s a very large dam. The beavers will rebuild. 👍👍😊
Do the Beaver dance !!!
Good job. You really need a escavator for that huge dam.
Thank you 😊 lol wish I could afford one lmao 🤣 that was a good laugh thanks for that 😊 hope you have a good week 👋🏻

Looking forward to that update

Kenislovas is the exception, he made a rake out of a fork.
You worked really hard on that , didn't look easy to do , nice one . Thanks 🙂
Looks great
Ooooo- want to come pull weeds at my place? You obviously got some experience today! I’ll even let you play in the mud after!
Update, update, update
Do you ever use a shovel?
Are they having their babies around this time ? Just don't want them hurt. Just asking
exaggeration is an art
You need a excavator to clean out and fix the creek… my opinion…
Такую плотину экскаватором надо копать , а не вилами силенок не хватит.🏋️🏋️🏋️
maybe you should scratch sideways out of the dam so material doesn't work its way for the next clog. also, a shovel would work for the thick grass.
Could have probably used a shovel on this dam. All that grass and mud.

You just wasted your time making this small exit,the beavers will have that fixed in 10 minutes
The dam must be old if there's grass growing in it. Hey, people, he needs 1000 THUMBS UP.
Just hit 909 with mine!

you made a mistake... leave those beavers dams alone

BEAVER DAMS USUALLY STOP O SLOW DOWN THE FLOW IF WATER ,. THEY ARE TAKEN OUT ONLY IF ITS NECESSAR..
Dude you did a great job with just the rake but a shovel would have helped in the beginning.

You haven't done anything that will stop the beaver. They will build it right back in one maybe two nights.
