Rodents never end up sounding the way i expect!

They squeak like Guinea Pigs lol

NORBERT! The badgers are throwing fish at us!

Need em for my leaky faucet

what is a 'chonk'?

@@MatkatMusic chunky

@@MatkatMusic big

@@MatkatMusic having huge fat/body proportion. usually used to refers cute/round animal, or think of a well fed cat 😊

Normally I’d say that was a loss but then I thought of how amazing a fishing and duck hunting spot that must be. I already love fishing but the moment I can afford guns, one of the many guns I’m gonna buy will be a shotgun I intend to use for duck hunting. Me and my dad together already catch so much fish that we don’t know what to do with it, and we’ve had to buy a second freezer just for the fish.

@@genghiskhan6809 place is semi protected by ducks umlimuted for that very reason. Plus hes got the deep woods with one or two okd growth oaks, frivken majestic

Where does your grandpa live?

I hope he enjoys that lake

@@genghiskhan6809 or perhaps ecosystems are inherently valuable on their own, even if they don't provide direct benefit to human beings.

It's a Canadian crew doing a Canadian show. Much easier traveling around one's own country than trying to arrange visas and permits as a foreigner.

@@jackielinde7568 yeah, true! That way is good for us too to know more about canadian animals. Sometimes there are new things to be discovered right around the corner!

Same here. As much as I love learning about animals around the world, I appreciate learning *more* about the ones in my back yard. 😊

I like and stick to canadian beaver as it is far more populous in my area. I am not anti foreign beaver its just not as available but great fun as its sometimes kept differently.

@@IanM-rl1pu Always nice to see someone supporting the local beaver population.

That makes the idea of perfume a lot less appealing. Imagine all those refined nobles paying lots of money to smell like beaver fart.

Me too. And I laughed even more because it reminded me a skit of SNL with Hugh Laurie as a ghosthunter.

A true Canadian, like Terrence and Phillip. PPPFFTT...AAHAHAHA!!

@@AccidentalNinja 10:29 The video said castorium smells like vanilla.

And it was no dry pfffft! It was a "wet" one like dad used to drop at Thanksgiving!

I'm sure it would be a great benefit, but part of the wildfire-problem comes from drought. And without water, beavers won't really be able to create ponds. But in general, I'm pretty sure you're right and it would help.

In a Nature of Things episode about beavers, researchers found a strong correlation between beavers' constructions and precipitation. It was a while ago that I saw it, but pretty cool. The episode should be easy to find if anyone's curious.

@@frizzlethecat2084 In Arizona, in areas that have been ravaged by drought, the parts of such areas that allowed beavers to live and create their dams, found that their waterways continued to have water throughout the driest parts of the year. The water management system of the beavers beat the droughts. Initially it had been thought, or claimed, that beavers couldn't be re introduced because of the ongoing droughts and water shortages. But some areas rejected this assertion and introduced beavers. Those areas were the ones that had water all year round, which had a tremendous knock on effect of the health and presence of all the other animal species of the area - as they had water. It was a total success even in the areas hard hid by years of drought.

@@greenman6141 thats pretty cool... and makes sense, im probably going off on a tangent here, but theoretically speaking, the ponds they create, would add to rainfall, i mean the whole water cycle thing i learnt in school, but forget the exact details tbh, but im thinking something like increased surface area plus slow moving... and, if you have a dammed up area of water, you have that amount of water to still head downstream and feed the watercourse, plus small scale, but theyre collecting atleast some dead trees and twigs which would become kindling for forest fires... plus, if you have water, you can introduce other animals that would eat woodland greens, that would otherwise die off qnd wecome super dry and flammable, and the dams, and soggy surrounding areas, would be natural firebreaks... kinda sad tho, the bit where they said they were removed because they were in conflict with farmlands...

You're actually not far off. The extinction of the Megafauna out West, such as Camelops, Giant Sloths, etc.. probably sowed the seeds of destruction in the beginning though.

you didnt sniff the scent mounds? shame on you

Those tail slaps can scare the poop out of ya, especially when you dont know they are there.

What about ants

We're bringing them back in Scotland too! We started in 2009 and we now have about 1000 beavers in 250 families.

yeah they're cute until the take one of your fingers off

@@sunstrider1984 Fun fact: Beaver teeth are orange because of how much iron there is in them. It's like getting bitten by a boltcutter.

Yey

i agree

Same

That's not really cool

@willwrite3675 Yes it is, nobody cares if you disagree

That is super cool!! A superpower if you will

_Slap fight!!_ 😂

Then you need to check out Zombeavers

If you have ever seen a rodent's teeth close up. Yeah, you might feel a "wrongness" about how they look.

@@tiacho2893 I know. They are orange because they have iron.

They have a reputation of being Biters. Like most wildlife, beavers are best observed from a distance.

Why are dads afraid of the most random things lol

@@aimeegalindo1526 Because we Dads have lived long enough to know we're not immortal and have to look out for our kids, who still think they're gods in young bodies. Bravery isn't the lack of fear. Bravery is the action in spite of those fears.

I bet you can make a sand castle tho. A beaver can't. At least not yet.

@@Matityahu-the-God haha . Nope. I tried and I failed

@@cymjeff92 a beaver can't build a sentence. You just did that.

Excellent point!

@@Matityahu-the-God True, hunans are great at making useless things, a beaver wouldn’t waste its time, or talent, on something so frivolous. Beavers ARE business in the front, and the back.

Yeah. And keeping this one classy wasn't easy!

I always thought the den was a part of the dam. The canals really surprised me though.

Me too

Robin Sparkles: "Today we're going to sing a song about our beavers!"

Wow! I never even thought about that, but I guess they do!

@@cursedGalataea Seen too many videos. I don't live near beavers to ever have the chance to piss them off.

They do not come out to attack! They hide!

I shouted "Beaver farts!!" and sat here giggling like a maniac 😁 Yuppers, Im one of "those people" who will forever find farts funny....especially when its an animal that surprises/scares itself with one 😂

I couldn’t believe my little earz 🤸‍♂️💨

You already are an animal, a human.

Was hoping someone commented this! Castor oil ≠ castoreum oil

Sorry the beavers on your property got removed. The roads people should be putting metal grates at the ends of the culverts that go under roads. Stops the beavers from plugging up the culverts.

Carniverous catterpillars!?! That sounds really cool!

@@Menzobarrenza The Hawaiian carnivores caterpillar

@@user-lq4ct6dr5m Thanks 😁

I'd love a vid on pigeons, generally... I have 5 rescued ferals, & have come to realise just how fascinating they are.

beavers are bad for the enviroment, unless your a duck or a moose..i guess

or masquitoes

@@hibbidyjibbidyy this is completely false lmao.

​@@hibbidyjibbidyythat is nit true. They literally create ecosystems that work

The Nooksac riiver has been badly damaged by the logging of forests on steep land the sends creeks eroding and bringing dpwn boulders into fllod plains. The problem gets worse when illegal trappers go in and wipe out the beavers - still!

Not really

Am playing while listening, do approve.

They are natures cure for humanity, basically. The yin and yang.

That’s so Dutch

@@Noidonteatbabiesstopasking Thanks😁

Can you make a video about Aardvarks?

You should make a video about Prairie Dogs, they are ecosystem engineers of the North American grasslands.

Here are some animals that I’d like to see videos of, elephants, coyotes, giraffes, zebras, snow leopards, wild boar, warthogs, cape buffalo, and ring tailed lemurs.

Can you do sockeye salmon?

Really?! Pay to offset carbon footprint? Like those billionaire and politicians who say they offset their carbon footprint so they can keep flying their own jet and boat and keep polluting. Then ask the poorest people to change their life, use higher cost energy and suffer more?!

There's also some species of termite.

Don't forget about weaverbirds ;)

What about BEES?!

@@bradley4465 bees konda included with ants really. Ants bees and wasps all belong to the same (genera?' group? Whichever word is right) hence they all exhibit similar nest building
