Thanks for the great video, but please drop skillshare as a sponsor. They have unsavory practices when it comes to people's credit cards. Source: My own experience, Reddit. After the trial if over, you wont get charged, but it you actually forget to cancel you will get charged in the next billing cycle - meaning next year. They charged me for a couple of months without me noticing, They didnt refund despite the fact I didnt use the account. There is a reason most youtubers dropped skillshare as a sponsor. Please AnimalWonders consider this.
I totally read the title as "the biggest beaver in the dam world"
LMAOOOOOO 😂🤣😅😂🤣😅
Same. We r 1
Hahahahaha
I mean they both relate to the video
Same 😂😂😂
I need Huckleberry to come over to help me artfully place all the sticks I use as décor.
I remember bawling my eyes out over how cute Huckleberry was when he first came to Animal Wonders. I'm so glad to see him growing up so well. Beavers are so insanely important and special and I can't wait to watch repopulation efforts blossom in the next few decades.
Oh my gosh, I can’t believe how much Huckleberry has grown!
jessie: beavers are the only animals apart from humans who change their environment for their families
termites: sad giant mound construction noises
This lady is so great because she's genuinely passionate about beavers.
Huckleberry’s little hands when he’s chewing on sticks 😍
I can remember huckleberry was very small baby when he came at first , so glad to see him growing and living so happily and safely in animal wonders
Thanks so much for the shoutout about my Skillshare class!
Great video about beavers!
Thanks for sharing your passionate and knowledge with all of us!
Huckleberry is certainly making a spectacular dam. Let’s see how big he can make it before he’s gotta start all over again.
That’s no fair, they were using creative mode.
I've flown over the longest Beaver Dam! It was actually kind of difficult to see from above, it blends in to the landscape.
A much needed dose of Huckleberry with beaver facts? Count me in!
I want to create a dnd world where beavers were domesticated like dogs and there is a variety of beavers for different tasks and companionship, ones that are trained in logging obviously, and big ones that pull carts on land and in water, and ones that are trained in carpentry, and little ones that kids take out to the local swimming hole for play time ect. I think it would be so fun and cute
Thanks for being so sweet to Huckleberry and introducing him to the world!
I live in Newton Massachusetts and I see plenty of beavers on our Charles River. I've heard Native Americans from this area known as the Mattaskeeset who used to call the Charles river Quinobequin, meaning "meandering".
As for beavers, no need to make dams on this river anymore though, we people have made more than enough! But clearly we do try and there are two beautiful beaver huts on the river within approximately five miles from each other near my house! A great surprising joy for me is to paddle near their lodge. If they encounter you they most often slap their tails on the water as a warning and it sounds like a cannonball! I absolutely love them.
Love your channel.
Beautiful beaver
Just from listening to Jessi's narration, by now Huckleberry probably knows more scientific facts about beavers than any other beaver in the world.
Hucklebeaver is an Omega Level Mutant on the cuteness scale
Beavers don't always build dams. There are at least two lodges in the lake where my parents have their home. Since the deep water is already there, and since there is no running water, their instinct to build a dam never surfaces.
It's pretty common to see them swim around when we are boating around in the evening. A few years ago, I liked to canoe around the lake in the evening and after dark. The water was glassy smooth and everything was silent.
Until it wasn't.
Apparently, the beavers weren't happy about my invasion of their territory. They let me know by loudly slapping the water.
Loudly.
Fortunately, I didn't jump out of my seat in into the lake.
During the winter, they keep the water around their lodge ice free, presumably by pushing the warmer water up to the surface.
In the spring, we found hundreds of chewed sticks about the lake. Also, they are fond of eating the vegetation once it starts to grow in the spring. We've found a number of water lily roots that they dug up and floated to the surface.
Omg, that beaver is huge! Wtf, are they all that big? He looks bigger than 3 groundhogs.
Who else read the title as "The Biggest Dam Beaver in the World"? lol
Nice beaver... Damn
Beavers are AWSOME and I Can’t stress THAT enough…
Other species intelligence is highly underrated. I didn't know that beavers built dams to make wetlands to have particular foods available to them. That reminds me of ants that farm aphids and fungus. Termites build their huge mounds, and birds with their different types of nests. Or how even though we say that we domesticated certain animals, we take care of them by keeping them safe and well fed, so it feels a bit like they domesticated us a bit too.
Didn't know this would be a beaver documentary
I told my mom how beavers waterproof their coats. She was grossed out. I then shared all the other kinda gross facts I’ve learned on this channel. It was fun
dam bro I love beavers
“Their existence had a major impact on the course of modern history in the United States and Canada,” :😄
“Due to their amazing fur,” :😀
I just love huckleberry he is so adorable. Thanks Jessi::)
Those big dams sound like beaver cities, if they have multiple lodges and many generations and families living in them.
Hi im from egypt
I think Huckleberry is soooooooo cute I love learning about them they are fascinating
Dam that's cool
Thats amazing!!!I would live to see it!😺
Looove her personality in this video. Planning on watching more with my 7 year old
They're so CUTE.
They don’t use their tail to pay down mud in the dams but do they use their tails to slap on water to alert for danger?
Beavers are cool creatures! Hunting and trapping are probably need for sure but are still awesome to see! Thats a huge dam?
I just found this out and watch this all the time!
I have a beaver in my backyard. He leaves branches minus the bark under our dock. The lake has a man-made dam. I've never seen a beaver dam or lodge while paddling around the lake in my canoe.
The name “Huckleberry” makes me want to have a huckleberry right now.
Absolutely fantastic 🦫🦫🦫. What can be better than a huge beaver dreaming at you??)
1:27 omg look at this king.
Here's a great pickup line
Girl are u a beaver beacuse DAAAMN
Safe to say that beavers that don't build dams, just don't give a damn.
As a Canadian, I love them beavers. My second fav rodent besides Cappy's
His building skills are better than mine
MY COMMENT IS THE FIRST ONE AND IM THE SEC VIEWER WOW ok as I was gonna say beavers are awesome and without them the lake near our home wouldn't even existing i could be able to keep a beaver i would but I won't be able to give them a good enough home but u still love them so much
Hola saludos desde Colombia me encanta ver tus videos 👍👍💚💙♥️
Kingfisher ON. Largest beaver lodge.
Thanks you so much for helping these animals! Tell Huckleberry I said hi! Keep up the amazing work!
Hey jessi can you actually show us the beaver dam next time I’m distraught
Oh no, did you miss the amazing aerial shots of the dam? We worked with Parks Canada and were thrilled to be given permission to feature never before seen images of the dam taken by Rob Belanger! Since the dam is nearly impossible to get to on human foot, photos taken from above are really the only option. It's really eye opening to see the incredible effort put in by all the beaver families to create safe homes for their young.
Great video, but I believe I already saw it twice.
Re-upload to fix a mistake. Thanks for watching!
@@animalwondersmontana The woes of the decimal system ... I watched again, you got it right this time! Huckleberry is so adorable! Thank you very much!
I thought I had just watched this earlier today lol.
I honestly can’t tell where the dam is in the pictures of it
Why are you keeping that beaver in captivity? It seems perfectly healthy and demonstrates the survival skills expected. Shouldn’t he be released into the wild to live out a normal beaver life?
Love Huckleberry....he's a big boy!!!! 💜🦫💜
My favorite beaver story is the air dropping of beavers into Idaho in late 40s.
I saw a beaver yesterday in the most random spot in the middle of some farm land on the side of the road in a drainage ditch. I think it was living in the drainage pipe lol it was tame too didn't run away from me or anything so I got to watch it swim and bring bring sticks inside the drainage pipe
Keep posting your content is so educational and I love it:) I sent a package:) when will you be doing a unboxing video?:)
I read it as the biggest dam beaver in the world
Just a heads-up. TH-cam unsubscribed me from y’all. I was wondering why I wasn’t getting notifications, checked - and found myself unsubscribed. Glad to re-click the subscription bell.
Glad you're back with us!
I love your video I like your show since 3rd grade when I grow up I want to be marine biologist
Was this production aimed for children specifically?
Who came here from Ted-Ed's video "Why are beavers so obsessed with dams?"
Me: Don't post a Percy Jackson reference that book is thirteen years old...
Also me: ... the dam snack bar...
The eccho is driving me nuts dude you need a mic 🙏😭
Huck is still one of my favs 🤎
Animal wonders is great
And not one view of the dam in the title?
Hello from cali over here and this seems like this is going to be interesting!
Wasn't there a light there Tom last time I vacation I could have sworn there was a lake here oh my God is that a wave
I wouldn't say they aren't multi leveled, I read about one that had 2 parts, upper and a lower area with different sections
You're just adorable!
Do beavers have predators? If so do they have any defensive or offensive moves they use to protect their family?
That author, Frances Backhouse, has some other interesting wilderness/nature related titles too..
Yes they are an amazing animal!!💚💚💚💚💚 They are my tribes sacred animal. ;-) And have been for long before they were trapped for their fur:-(
Hi need help with my turtle I don’t know what species he is but I need what diet and what humidity temp
Wasn't this posted earlier today?
Yep, re-upload because of a mistake.
That room is way to echoey to be recording audio.
and bevars are the natinol animal here!
Why did she laugh when she said he’s unreleassbl
❤️
That little dude is build like atank
im in canda!
I will pay post 10 $100 an hour to unclog this.
"so huge"
That's what she said.
Also I was the first person to watch this! lol
We need to make it illegal to destroy Beaver dams!
I could marry her omg
Today is my birthday now i am 7
They spend 2 years with their parents and the rest of their siblings both older and younger, does that mean some of them stay with their parents?
I watch you on epic
Doesn’t he need another beaver to make him company and to socialize with ?
I watched this first... th-cam.com/video/EgW9_2q1IoA/w-d-xo.html ...then came to this video, and dang! I felt like I was in kindergarten or on Romper Room. The difference in narration was jarring.
I did to
Did anyone see the largest dam in the world, I must’ve missed it somehow.
The dam here isn't build to hold a creek displacement, but to collect rain and snowmelt runoff from the mountain. So it a bit hard to pinpoint.
At 3:57 you see the stark difference of vegetation covers, that's the dam's reservoir. The bow-shaped water line shows the extent of the dam.
🥺🥺🖤🖤
1:18 , "[...]due to their amazing fur."
That's a nice way to say they were hunted just for their fur...
Calm down girl.
