Hey man, may I ask what the reason is for removing the dam in the first place? Excuse my ignorance if it’s obvious.
The creek still runs once the dam fills, it just creates a wetland. It helps the entire ecosystem but idiots destroy the dams because they want dry land in a creek bed
Honestly, I'd like to find a way to work symbiotically with them if possible. Like, okay, this is where you guys are putting your new pond? Cool. But I'm gonna dig a small bypass around it. You'll still have a little pond, but my creek is still gonna creek.
Maybe even by just running some pipe vs a big dig... I don't know what rocks y'all got over there.

The traditions of the Inuit reveal the ways they would hunt wolves. Cover a knife in animal blood Wait until the blood freezes Cover the knife in more blood Wait until the blood freezes Cover the knife in more blood Place the knife in the ground; blade up When wolves smell the fresh blood they b-line to the knife. They would then lick the fresh blood. By licking the fresh blood they will lick the frozen blood. By licking the frozen blood they will make their tongues numb. By making their tongues numb they would not feel their tongues lick the knife blade. By licking the knife blade they would bleed themselves out until they're dead.
