I raised two myself about twenty years ago. There is virtually no way not to get attached. They are so intelligent. It literally broke my heart to release them. I went back a couple of weeks later to check to see if they were ok. When they saw me, they ran up to me and crawled into my lap clinging to me and calling to me. It DESTROYED me. I sobbed all the way home. Watching this video brought it all back to me. I loved the job, but it takes a toll on you emotionally to do what is best for the animals.
sure, physically, they may have been fine but their emotional health matters too. It would be wrong to say it doesn't. Some wild animals are fine to go. Some can't wait to go. Before we domesticated dogs and cats, they lived their hard scrabble lives..."wild and free"...surviving. Now, it's considered cruel to abandon them. (I agree) People have pigs as pets. Unheard of-ish 30-ish years ago. Release them, sure, eventually they'll Have to do what they Have to do to survive. Live creatures enjoy comfort. Homeless people aren't "wild and free" and beavers are doing their best with their little hands to actually build homes. This in no way means that I think regular people should start grabbing wildlife. Absolutely not. I can't stand people that try to keep them as pets but a real rehabber that questions whether or not they should release an animal, because they feel the animal would be better off should be able give themselves and the animals some leeway.
I couldn't agree more. In fact, after raising hundreds of animals over fifty years, I have reached the conclusion that "imprinting" is NOT a thing, anymore than they imprint on all of their own species in the wild. They may have imprinted on ME, but they certainly didn't imprint on ALL humans by any stretch of the imagination. So I never bothered to distance myself from them as babies. They needed all the nurturing and comfort I could give them. As far as releasing them, if you want to know if they want to go free. Allow them to come and go as they please. That's what I did with most of mine. Not one ever stayed. Some stayed for a year or two. Some established populations in the area, but none maintained a relationship with me. Wild aimals never CHOOSE to be domesticated. I don't just drive out and throw out the animals willy nilly and say, "live free". I spend many, many hours choosing an ideal place for them to be as safe as possible and to thrive. I'm lucky that that place just happens to be my land many times, depending on the species, and I have many people who believe in what I am doing that offer their lands. Even so, the wilderness is not a safe place. I'm under no illusion that many of them live to a ripe old age. I do know, however, that they certainly lived longer, happier lives than they would have had I not intervened. I REAL rehabber does what is best for the animal, not what makes themselves feel better. FYI, many homeless people DO consider themselves "wild and free". I've worked with our local population for over three decades. We have programs in place to get them housing, food and jobs. More turn me down than accept the help. They will tell you straight up that they prefer to go and do what they choose even if it means not knowing where their next meal is coming from or whether they have a roof over their heads. I've learned not to make assumptions about people or animals and not to force my beliefs on them. Love them where they are and let them choose their own path.@@t181920c
The more I see of humans befriending, rescuing, helping & caring for wild animals, the more I think this is how the world is supposed to be. Imagine if our entire world was focused on being guardians & protectors for other creatures & living things. How special & wonderful a place it would be
I think that's how it used to be for most traditional peoples that lived in close contact with nature. Even if they did hunt, they did it respectfully.
My heart goes out to the rescuer who has to keep emotional distance from adorable, lovable Nibi. That can't be easy! What a special person she is. I like these channels for showing some of the "unsung heroes" among us. And the critters are always so adorable 😍
It really takes a special someone to do this type of thing. Like you said it's a real treat being able to have a glimpse into their lives. Huge love to all the rescuers and fosterers out there 🥰
Nibi appears to be an engineering savant! She instinctively builds dams in exterior doorways. Looks like your house will be ready to withstand HURRICANE season.
@@hlcepeda We had a Labrador who would always sleep by the front or back doors. When we went on holiday he would do the same thing. Gotta block those doors indeed!
Other rescue beavers wont do that. You can find videos of them building dams out of toys, pillows, shoes, phones .... this one seems to have amore solid instinct doing so even though she was rescued at a very low age. They commonly build dams where they hear running water though. Around the washing machine, on bathroom door, on walls with pipes in them. Beaver specialists even mislead wild beavers by setting up speakers with water noise, so they will dam the speaker instead of damming the brook and flooding nearby human cellars.
these videos make me sad because most of the animals released end up dying. survival rate for these rehabbed animals is very low, they should just reach out to sanctuaries when applicable.
@@jp-sn6si I think she won’t last very long in the wild because of predators that she is not familiar with…that she is not prepared to fight or evade. I think she should stay in a mostly overseen(governed) by humans sanctuary.

@@elmalloc yeh i think if she is so tamed she should be a pet. its too risky to let her back out to the wild and unfair to her and the people looking after her. i would keep her for sure for her own safety. its not cheating them of a life its protecting them once they have been tamed .
@Lucy in the Sky lucy stop stalking me for having a different opinion to yours. i don't like your picture and bullying and threatening me. for some people never get much freedom so why should an animal need the evils of the wild, if mostly some of us are locked up and never allowed to have life. i just don't like your name or look.
There’s no way I could be emotionally unattached if I were around such a cute little animal. I could try and I would try if necessary, but I already know that I’d fail miserably.
My heart just breaks when I see a wounded wild animal. I have helped on rare occasion, bringing a wounded rabbit home, picked up baby squirrels, tried to help an injured Canada Goose to no avail. I really respect you rehabbers and empathize with how difficult it is to help these animals when they are frightened and defensive.
You must've been brave to try to pick up a Canadian Goose. One hissed at me when I was a kid and I'm still skittish around them! Beautiful animals, though.
😍 Baby Nibi is adorable and I had no idea baby beavers hopping from excitement was a thing! It’s also very interesting to see her preferences and deeply ingrained beaver instincts at play! Great video!
Played a baseball tournament in beaverton many years ago, I'm from Canada and we had to stay at houses of residence there. We were very lucky to get a well off person, he paid for are whole team to go white water raftting it was awesome, never forget it. You actually may or may not know him but he was the designer of MLB logos.
Nibi is currently at the center of a legal battle in MA. Her rehabber is in a disagreement with the State Wildlife authorities because the want Nibi released, and the rehabber has deemed her unable to survive alone in the wild. Nibi will not bond with other beavers . Nibi has chosen her family and it is human. 🦫 Good luck Newhouse Wildlife Rescue and Nibi !❤🦫🍀
Get a stuffed animal squirrel and hold it out in front of the wildlife authorities like a cross in front of a vampire! If they have a shred of intelligence they will run away and go back to their caskets for refuge! REMEMBER Peanut the squirrel! Remember Fred the racoon!
Your video warmed my heart and put a smile on my face. How blessed are you to be able to care for the little critters. Thank you so much for sharing and brightening my day.
So cute. Thank you for rescuing so much wildlife and allowing them to live a normal life. Nibi is a character. Americans love their critters. These videos help us learn a lot about the nature of wild animals.
What an amazing foster mom she has! She loves Nibi with everything she has but still wants this sweet, lil beaver to live a normal life in the wild. The people that rehabilitate wild animals & then later release them, are just the best humans. They want animals to live their natural, free life but are happy to help when they’re abandoned & alone. It takes a special person to do this & as for Nibi? She’s just freaking adorable! 💕
Beavers are among the most family oriented of mammals. I know it will be a heartbreak to let her go, but I hope she can find a mate and make her own beaver family some day. She is as sweet as can be. So glad she found her first home with you.
Much respect to animal rehabilitators. Such an unselfish act of kindness and respect for nature. Loved watching Nibi working and playing. I hope she has a wonderful life when she is released.
Check out Holley Muraco (also here on youtube) for another person who rehabs beavers. She currently has 3 that each came in separately and they do this too! Wood stays in the pool, toys get thrown outside of the pool. They're SO cute.
Nibi is so freaking adorable!! her instincts to build a dam are so strong. I know that she will succeed in the wild and hopefully she will have a family of her own one day.
Nibi is adorable!!! She instinctively knows what she will do in the wildlife. Thank you for the cares and love and offer her the things she will need in her future, because she is not a pet. I love it 😘❤
Nibi I love her name. She can be your lil' helper in helping with injured or lost animals and make them feel at home....like look at me it will be ok! Ty for what y'all do. GB 🙏✨❤️
Animals like this need to go to people w/ land and a small body of water so she can be wild but still be monitored.... I could see her living in a pond w/ a little river nearby and her making other beavers come to the area and feel safe as well.
Try to find Nibi a nice home in a boutique zoo or another sanctuary. It looks like she's imprinted on humans and may not do well alone in the wild. When you save a life, you're responsible for that life forever. TY for rescuing this adorable creature 💞💕💗
I know. There are a number of channels featuring beavers and I have to view daily now. They are just adorable and smart. They really enjoy munching on sweet botatoes, berries, and bananas.
Such a beautiful heartfelt story! Nibi is just Incredibly adorable! How she plays & builds with her sticks is just amazing! I have to say, you were & are a blessing for Nibi, I know what you said about her being free in the wild Is BEST for her, & your strength to be able to do that is admirable!!!! YOU are truly a God send to all animals who are fortunate & blessed to have you cross their path! GOD BLESS YOU!!!! Love & KISSES TO NIBI!!!!!!! 🥰🙏😊💕
She definitely understands the difference between work and play. One day she will graduate and move out on her own - a fully fledged engineer witha great career in front of her building dams and maybe even bridges.
Thanks for posting ! My entire life I’m 65 my impression of beavers came from stories of the fur trade years back and nuisance beavers. Damming suburban streams. Thanks for sharing the true nature of this amazing creature
I love beavers.There are a couple living in some ponds by my house.They built a den on the side of one pond.They have taken down hundreds of trees from several of the ponds which means they have transported their hall hundreds of feet across land and water.Pretty amazing little creatures.The only time i have seen them is just before sunset in the water swimming, not on land.I go to the ponds every day hoping to see them in action but they are nocturnal i believe.Only a matter of time hopefully.
"I don't want to see her in an enclosure for her whole life" Wonderful human respecting and recognizing the need to help the beaver live a life that is meaningful for him. Show respect to all beings,allow them to live their best life as you would want to do. Stop eating them,eat a Whole food ALL plant diet. Say NO to factory farms and slaughter houses.Help stop the suffering. Live and let live !
Really hope they can find someone with a lot of private property w/ water. Where they won't mind having the beaver there. That way if she never gets that fear of people, she'll at least be in a place that will be a little safer for her.
It’s fascinating how generational knowledge and memory are passed to the offspring like Nibi knows how to build dams. Perhaps a parent who is musically inclined will pass that talent to the children. How this is accomplished is a mystery to me.

Thank goodness.
Nibi arranging the sticks made me think that, despite the fact that she's been raised by a human, her beaver instinct is strrroooong
well duh
Where’d you get a wild idea like that from a specific spot in the video that played twice?
Instincts are part of the brain's base development. They don't go away.
Yep. It's hard wired into her.
Gestalt response it’s called. Other animals have if too for various things.
she wasn’t even socialized around other beavers and she knows what beavers do. amazing
Do you know what the word 'instinct' means?
It's like how birds make nests or spiders make webs. They don't learn, they're just born capable of doing it. That's the power of nature my friend.
It's in their genes!!
@@solomonmendonca3223 It doesn't mean programed genes...

Beaver art. if some human did it badly, it would be worth millions. Nibi does it, like a pro and it has no value?
It's called Inner Intelligence. Unfortunately, most humans don't have it (also known as instinct or common sense)

Well, yeah. She's a beaver 😄
all I can think when I see her building dams across door is angry toddler trying to block the door to their room lol too cute.
Nibi is adorable!!! She instinctively knows what she will do in the wildlife. Thank you for the cares and love and offer her the things she will need in her future, because she is not a pet. I love it 😘❤
So adorable ❤ somebody gave this beaver these a job!
This beaver deserves all the love and care. God bless him.
Why not eat him like all the animals you eat in the name of God?
bless HER
leave religion out of it
@@The-Cat Just a well-wish. Nothing wrong with that. Feel free to substitute (or not) whatever you wish! Have a nice day.
I never noticed how much they look like our Quokka in the face. Very cute.
Nibi is very precious and sweet 🦫❤🩷😇 thank you for caring for the precious beavers! 👍 😀💙
Nibi I love her name. She can be your lil' helper in helping with injured or lost animals and make them feel at home....like look at me it will be ok! Ty for what y'all do. GB 🙏✨❤️
Animals like this need to go to people w/ land and a small body of water so she can be wild but still be monitored.... I could see her living in a pond w/ a little river nearby and her making other beavers come to the area and feel safe as well.
Thank you for your love and understanding
Try to find Nibi a nice home in a boutique zoo or another sanctuary.
It looks like she's imprinted on humans and may not do well alone in the wild.
When you save a life, you're responsible for that life forever.
TY for rescuing this adorable creature 💞💕💗
I’m glad she gets to stay where she is. She has a great life.
I luv the Nibi-Hop...lol! Now I know where the saying "busy as a beaver" came from. Soo dang adorable, especially smelling the flowers there. ❤❤❤💋
You All are very very special people, thank you ❤😊
I never knew beavers were my favorite animal until right now hahah. This is so cute
😍
We here in Canada have them as our national symbol for a reason! 🦫🥢🇨🇦
I know. There are a number of channels featuring beavers and I have to view daily now. They are just adorable and smart. They really enjoy munching on sweet botatoes, berries, and bananas.
she's so cute and so smart, watching her hop melted my heart
That's unconditional love, thank you for putting her first 🙏❤️🙏
Such a beautiful heartfelt story! Nibi is just Incredibly adorable! How she plays & builds with her sticks is just amazing! I have to say, you were & are a blessing for Nibi, I know what you said about her being free in the wild Is BEST for her, & your strength to be able to do that is admirable!!!! YOU are truly a God send to all animals who are fortunate & blessed to have you cross their path! GOD BLESS YOU!!!! Love & KISSES TO NIBI!!!!!!! 🥰🙏😊💕
I love the happy hop…❤️. How to you keep an emotional distance from something that adorable? Impossible!…lol
She definitely understands the difference between work and play. One day she will graduate and move out on her own - a fully fledged engineer witha great career in front of her building dams and maybe even bridges.
She's adorable!! ❤️😍😍
Nini is so precious. Thank you for giving her a chance to live well.
How beautiful is she, makes me want one!!! Thank you for these videos you share with us it bring joy to my heart!!!
Thanks for watching!
Nibi is a sweetheart!!! To think these little engineers almost went extinct in North America. And she’s a smart Beaver!!
She's very adorable 😍. And so industrious!
I am a fan too .. god bless you mini so glad you loved her.. and the governor for having compassion for our animals
She’s adorable! Thank you for educating me/us!
Thanks for posting ! My entire life I’m 65 my impression of beavers came from stories of the fur trade years back and nuisance beavers. Damming suburban streams. Thanks for sharing the true nature of this amazing creature
Thank you for the great work that you do in your rescue!
I love beavers.There are a couple living in some ponds by my house.They built a den on the side of one pond.They have taken down hundreds of trees from several of the ponds which means they have transported their hall hundreds of feet across land and water.Pretty amazing little creatures.The only time i have seen them is just before sunset in the water swimming, not on land.I go to the ponds every day hoping to see them in action but they are nocturnal i believe.Only a matter of time hopefully.
"I don't want to see her in an enclosure for her whole life"
Wonderful human respecting and recognizing the need to help the beaver live a life that is meaningful for him.
Show respect to all beings,allow them to live their best life as you would want to do.
Stop eating them,eat a Whole food ALL plant diet. Say NO to factory farms and slaughter houses.Help stop the suffering.
Live and let live !
This made me tear up and warmed my heart. I wish Nibi long and healthy happy life, and the same to her rescuers as well. Much
Besides me being an Oregon State Beaver fan. She is just plain adorable! Absolutely Precious! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
the instinct to build is facinating ---
Really hope they can find someone with a lot of private property w/ water. Where they won't mind having the beaver there. That way if she never gets that fear of people, she'll at least be in a place that will be a little safer for her.
Nibi's adorable and a heartfelt THANK YOU!💖 for being such a great human and rescuing/caring for these precious animals.
God bless you for being so caring and considerate for our wildlife. Nibi would be wrapped around my heart if I were caring for her!
It’s fascinating how generational knowledge and memory are passed to the offspring like Nibi knows how to build dams. Perhaps a parent who is musically inclined will pass that talent to the children. How this is accomplished is a mystery to me.
I believe this is instrumental in the development of personalities and traits to include mental disorders.
