Western Montana Beaver Takes Down Small Tree (Video)
It's always fun to see wildlife doing what they need to do to survive and working in their own habitat. A great reason we live here right?
This little beaver was a busy beaver. It was neat to see him take down a small tree while I was on the water fly fishing. Although sometimes I wonder if there are less fish around because of the commotion these guys make, I know otters can cause the fishing to be worse.
I am wondering if he is making a home right here, because he didn't take the tree with him as they sometimes do. This is the first time I have seen one gnaw down a tree, but then he gathered a couple other pieces and then took off... didn't really see him much after but then again we moved on.
