I've drained forest and prepared to drain the rest of the channel which is upstream. The dam causes flood damage to the fields.

I imagine that the mud used to hold the sticks together is frozen in those temperatures. Maybe that is why it wouldn’t collapse. It sure looked like it was about to, but the foundation was frozen.

The second view was a really good one. Can see how high the dam was, and see all the water being held. Also a good way to watch your hard work !

The dam is how the beavers protect themselves from predators.

That huge tree that you pulled from the bottom of this dam is why it did not collapse. That was keeping the base of the dam strong, but as usual you killed the dam. 👍

I'm so sorry to hear that speedy recovery, humidifier if you have abuterol and saline solution for therapy at night put at least 1 of both solutions in the humidifier also Vicks Vapor Rub I really good to add some of the machines come with the option to put them In I did this for my grandson who didn't want to take his therapy and pediatrician loved the idea also it doesn't increase your heart rate because is going slower but steady I each breath and last tip I do for myself my asthma and COPD I take ginger lemon 🍋 slices and some of the juice cinnamon and a tea bag of orange spices little sugar and honey it works really good hope yiu get better greetings from Oklahoma ❤

Thank you for the video! We live in the Southeastern United States. We also are plagued with beaver trouble. They kill beautiful trees that provide nuts or fruit to the deer population. They also kill pine trees that we periodically thin, cut, and replant. You are doing great work. For whatever reason, your videos relax me, I love watching the water go down. I’m looking forward to the next episode. ❤❤❤

@12:11 -- there's a short length of white wood near lower mid screen -- is that a piece of beaver meal?? Looks like the inner bark (cambium) was eaten and the wood was left.

Small tributaries have also formed.👀 The straw-like grass around the river looks like a protective material. From above, it looked like Protective film or fur.🛡

I think it did not collapse because of the large tree trunk laying across. It looks so very cold Mr Kenislovas - very good hard work.

Almost certainly beavers in the area will re-build. I think he said once they do not re-use he material.

@PatTheBat 2 ай бұрын

I actually had a little thought about this collapse that you working for. I wondered if you tried to begin on the upper side of the dam and scrape or dig so you get more depth on that side. I guess it’s creating more pressure to the dam that way. It was just a thought and I have zero experience of dam removal, but it should work. 😊❤

Great start to opening the dam, removing most of material from the front of the dam. If you want a good collapse keep making the cut wider. Spending more time removing the mud in the dam would really lower the water level in the stream.

Beaver dams have been shown to restore native habitat and species faster than human efforts. You should leave these dams and wetlands alone.

@Azureecosse 2 ай бұрын

Love your video but mixed feeling as Beaver damns are actually good for the environment they encourage biodiversity into the land, they create more insects which in turn pollinate the crops and the land and allow dragon flies frog newts and amphibians to breed to flourish and create more food for birds and predators, in areas prone to drought the hold moisture in the soil which prevent the ground from drying out reducing dust and airborne pollution.

Hi there not always is going to happen the collapse byt guess what i still love every minute of your videos the area is so beautiful and your videos are educational and very relaxing the sound of the water so dont worry you will get them again probably in spring

@SeanSteggs 2 ай бұрын

Te get collapse you have to take the front of the dam out NOT the back. The back holds the wall height, not the structural support. Dig the front out to build the weight/mass in front of the wall which the wall can’t handle. Let the height build while digging out the front. This builds collapsing pressure but not structural strength. You want the mass of the water to bust the dam NOT flow rate.

The light touch you are applying is knocking on to the forest over time by changing beaver behaviour - looks like they've industrialized dam building material production. :/

@cadwer7 2 ай бұрын

Please do not remove beaver dams! You're singlehandedly undoing the work of mother nature's hydrologic engineers. There are many watershed restoration practitioners who are focusing on emulating Beaver dams in watersheds where beavers have been extirpated. They help keep water tables high, streamside vegetation and wetland plants healthy and contribute immensely to carbon capture! Many watersheds on earth are suffering immensely from actions such as the ones you are taking. If you want to talk about it more, feel free to reach out.

@rustyiron 2 ай бұрын

Beaver are an invasive species, their dams are on drainage ditches. Hydrologic Engineers have designed the ditches to drain farm land. The high water levels in the ditches block the field drains, saturating the ground reducing the amount of arable land. Artificial dams have their place and a drainage ditches is not one of them. Please understand why things are being done before commenting.

Why can't you leave it alone? Beavers have been building dams for thousands of years. Humans build dams and kill thousands of trees and plants and flood much much more land (man made lakes) and interfere with and stop fish migration. So what is your problem with beavers building dams and in fact creating habitat for fish, frogs and other aquatic life and water plants for moose to eat ?

why is it “not ok” to have slightly larger wetland environment? Do you mean it is inconvenient for humans? There can be many benefits of the dams too like increased biodiversity less likelihood of flooding and many more
