    For such a wide dam, you took out quite a bit of it. I'm sure the beavers will start rebuilding ASAP. It'd be interesting to see how long before the entire width is built up again. Hopefully, this gets a revisit

    How many beavers does it take to create a dam of this size? I understand it’s in their DNA but this had to be a group of 2 or 3 or more.
    The water current/pressure was massive with this dam….. You had a serious whirlpool going just below the breach.
