An fascinating concept this. I’m 1 of those men and women whom tend to wait for things to mature before taking action but in this case I’m mindful that inaction leads to only failures so I will heed your comments and start to do some thing about it.

Hi, actually love the design of one’s web page. Would you mind telling me what theme that you are employing? I’m new to this and I’m hoping to get mine searching anywhere near as cool as yours. Thanks a lot.

Hi, When I add a web-page to my Favorites in IE8, it is added at the bottom of the already existing list. Allow me to sort them by name*manually. But I’d like IE8 to try this automatically. Is this done ? Thanks

Beav on. Shame the Soviet plan to create a hybrid master race of elite beavers came to nothing.

Truth be told I just like saying ‘beaver’.

The Pope’s decision to classify beavers (and capybaras) as fish had less to do with their environment and everything to do with the Church’s goal to collect souls. People weren’t exactly lining up to convert. Asking them to give up their traditional foods wouldn’t really lure them in.

“Also just like men, they won’t stop building until the job is done”? Doesn’t sound like most men I know.

Beavers have already been reintroduced to parts of Scotland and studies into repopulating parts of England are underway.
Needless to say, some landowners are very keen, others see it as the end of the world as we know it.

well, can the great barrier reef be seen from space? I’d think a better example of “animal” created structures that can be seen from space would be the Great Wall of China. Oh, but then again, that’s a myth.

i once went snowshoeing over a frozen beaver dam. it’s really neat- they help support a huge wetland ecosystem. even though it was the dead of winter in the north there were tons of little mouse tracks, fisher (the animal) tracks- tracks from weasels, ravens, etc. all over the place – the dam kept a pond of water full of fish and plants for those animals to live off of. really neat stuff.

“…the only animal-created structures that can be seen from space” – Anyone heard of a little something starting with ‘G’ and ending in ‘reat Barrier Reef’?

Interesting piece! I would, however, prefer to see gender-inclusive language in the first part, unless you meant that only men are responsible for changing our environment!

I think the order to be switched to “Terrible Pests and Our Only Hope.” In my mind’s eye I see the wonder of nature for decades and centuries chipped away by irate farmers with rifles.

Beavers being fish probably contributed to their extinction in the UK (fur being the major factor).

And you missed a good bit about their sex organs; in Medieval Europe it was believed that male beavers would bite off their own testicles and throw them at pursuing hunters to get them to leave him alone!

Nice illumination of this: http://bestiary.ca/chimaera/103

I think it is pretty stupid for the Pope to say that beavers are fish. I keep hoping that President Obama will close down the Roman Catholic Church in this country because of issues like this, when President Obama campaigned on calls for greater use of science. I know that President Obama can not shut down the whole Vatican thing world-wide but surely he can shut down the Pope’s operation in this country.

“those darn dams” – I see what you did there … and I wonder what those Russian scientists were trying to do with their mating experiments …

Beaver fur is still widely used in the making of hats. The hat makers Stetson and Borselino were fur trappers, harvesting pelts on their own and turning the fur into fine felt.

im pretty sure that elephants change their environment more than beavers. one theory says that the savannahs in Africa are a result of elephants deforesting the land….

After watching a movie about beavers a few weeks ago…

Now, there’s only one kind of movie that fits that description. Unless…no. Only one.
