    Wow Mantas, you put a lot of work into that one. Your friend owes you a few beers for sure. A large amount of water sent down stream and drainage tiles opened up to help the fields drain. Great work buddy.

    Extremely satisfying to us "arm chair critics" when you placed the camera for us to watch you shovel huge chunks of the dam away. Such hard work to remove mud and sticks. Keep up trying to defeat the beavers!

    I don't think all of that erosion is from water movement or rainfall.
    I'd warrant that the beavers took a significant amount of that to make their dams at one time or another while hollowing it out and making a den/lodge for themselves until it was so compromised that a flash movement of water took the rest away.

  • @evolutionCEO
    @evolutionCEO Рік тому +1

    beavers are such cleaver builders. their work brings so much fertility to the land far beyond the banks of the river.
    perma-culturists now use swales to bring fertility. swales being a form of beaver replacement (but nothing like as good). mother nature knows what she is doing.
    if you look into the works of Victor Shauberger, he did much work on vortexes and the natural movement and flow of water. Water, when allowed to flow will meander (create s shapes) which means a straight ditch conveying fast water will erode heavily.
    the only things that stop erosion is slow water (beavers create this) and plant roots. rocks will resist erosion, but even they will yield to the water.
    what you should do is plant willows along the dam top, and into the eroded bank. that would stop all erosion, on both sides of the dam, for ever more.
    of course, if houses or roads are caught in the dam catchment, then things need to be done.

    That edge of the previous pond was more than likely where the beavers had dug in to the bank for their living, quarters, and when the water was released and come rushing through there, since beavers had left that Water went through the house, that Bank and dug it all out.

    Actually, that dam should have been left alone. It was creating a much needed wetland, creeks and rivers are not supposed to be straight nd run without interruption, that creates erosion. Wetlands that would bring deer, Elk, bear, and migratory game birds. this was just silly. The eroded area was from your work previously and the beavers using the mud. you need to watch some videos of how the beaver are bringing back wetlands where man has destroyed them. this in turn helps the ecology, moderates summer and winter temperatures and creates better farmlands.
