    FAQs/Why would they do that?! Answers
    We are so glad you are here! Welcome to our channel!
    1. We are in Oklahoma near the Arkansas border.
    2. We do this on a volunteer basis.
    3. Kim aka Mom is retired. Jennifer owns her own business as a massage therapist.
    4. We film multiple locations in one day since we can’t go out all the time given Jen’s full time job. You may not see all the locations we filmed that day in one video.
    5. You may see other people in our videos at times including Granny aka Sue (mom’s mom), Jeff (Kim’s husband and Jennifer’s dad), or Jessica (Jennifer’s little sister) and Lucy (our beautiful, amazing, wonderful dog).
    6. Many wonder why we put stuff down culverts. A few reasons: it provides help for wildlife, we like to and it would have gone downstream anyway. If it blocks another culvert then we will take care of that too but most of the locations we visit are in incredibly rural areas where there won’t be another culvert for miles.
    7. We care about wildlife and never want to cause harm to them. The only reason we will clear a beaver dam is if it is threatening land or roads that can not be accessed any other way. It may not be the road directly within sight but a farm road close by.
    8. We appreciate advice in the comments. We understand that we will receive constructive criticism in the comments. What we won’t allow is the calling of names, derogatory terms, or just plain calling us stupid or idiots. We are all adults here and the internet is already a largely negative place as it is, let’s not add to it. We are people doing our best to help our neighborhood and planet by picking up trash and clearing culverts. Why do we deserve hate for that?
    9. You may not agree with or like the way we did something but that doesn’t mean we did it wrong. There is a right/wrong way to dismantle a bomb. Clearing culverts is up for interpretation to the one doing the work.
    10. We hope that you enjoy our videos and will keep coming back for more! Any other questions you have feel free to ask in the comments.

    I think this is one of my most favorite videos. You guys have done in a long time. I enjoy each and everyone of your videos but some more than others. This definitely goes in the top three. You look like you had such a good day and it wasn’t real stressful and real hard. Maybe that’s what it was. Y’all keep making videos and I’ll continue to watch. Good luck, girls!

    Well that was a great video for a rainy, hot July 15th. Love it. It reminds me of Muskoka, Ontario, which is about 2.5 hours north of where we live and where we used to go camping. Lush and green and lots of water. Thanks, Inspector Lucy seems to also approve of your hard work. 😎🇨🇦😎

    I watched Kenislovas the other day his potato rake is massive. Maybe keep a look out for one like that or get one made by a blacksmith? It would definitely make a big difference with leaves and pine needles. Great video, as always. Keep safe out there👍

    If your mic’s are the same type as I have for my iPhone, when you turn them on, if you press the on button one press at a time instead of holding the button in, it swaps the settings over, if I turn mine on and press it 3 times so on third setting it echoes, maybe check what setting the mic is on, first or second setting works best on mine.

    To begin with I thought Mum was in a Culvert! I wondered what she'd done to Jen to be in there? Great Video I was wondering if you added a spade to your weapons if that would help? just a thought!

    Hi there! Been subbed for a few months and love your vids! You probably get asked this a lot so apologies in advance but my wife fell in love with Lucy - what breed is she? Keep having fun.

    • @culvertsandmore
      @culvertsandmore  Місяць тому

      We’re glad she loved her as much as we do! We aren’t entirely sure of her breed. She is a mix of breeds. We found her wandering the side of the road one day about three years ago and she was slightly still a puppy. She definitely has some pitbull. We think maybe lab.
      The south is notorious for people not spaying and nurturing animals so mix animals and stray and animals dumped is a major issue. Lots of our rescue animals get sent to the north to be adopted.
