    The animals shown at 3:51 and 4:29 and 5:37 , are not beaver. They are nutria. Nutria were not even introduced to Oregon until the 1930's.

      The three times that what are called beaver are shown, the pictures are of nutria or coypu. The white muzzles and whiskers give them away, as the beaver has a black muzzle and whiskers. The size of the nutrias in Oregon has decreased a great deal over the last half-century. There were probably several subspecies of them introduced from their native South America and a larger strain may have established itself first and then smaller subspecies won out over time. In 1967, I found a nutria that had just been killed by a dog near the Willamette River. Using my salmon scales, I found that it weighed 77 pounds. The nutria that I have been seeing over the years since, have been much smaller and tend to be less blackish and more brownish in color than those very large ones of the past.

      I was born near the outer banks but moved to Astoria soon after. I've been all around including LA. Astoria is one of the few towns on the West coast worth seeing. Do not go in the winter. May-October and September is probably best after the kids are back in school. Water gets up to 60 in the summer. I live out here now and miss the southeast and the warm water and warmer people. Enjoy what you have but visit Astoria if you get a chance, central Cali is nice too, other than that you're not missing anything.

      Cut the sanctimonious soy talk.. Look up kennewick man.. a european skull found on the columbia river years ago.. it predated natives by thousands of years.
      We don't own the land, we just live on it until someone else takes it from us. Enjoy the ride, and quit virtue signalling!

      No one lived here before people crossed the land bridge from Asia. You could say those first Americans "stole" the region from the fish and buffalo if you want to take that psuedo-logic. People were fighting over land in America and across the world and still do when they don't trade and seek the objective truth. Be thankful for the Western enlightenment and do some research on the reality of all humanity.

    this is a damn lie its los angeles has been a city in the west since the early 1500's and so have many other california cities like san francisco san diego santa rosa sacramento. So this publisher cant say that astoria is the oldest american city when there were other american cities before it thank you :)

      They spent the winter in a fort they built, and prepared for the return trip in the spring. The purpose of the expedition was to document the territory, its people, and its fauna and flora. Their work is recorded in their journals.
