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.
Hah! @ 12:00 Queen of the West Used to work on that ship Definitely a job that helped me seek more of a connection with my Oregonian roots and history. I love this State In spite of social and political ills, It's core is still amazing to me
There's a lot of haters out there, but I've lived all over this country and the state of Oregon and the city of Portland are the best in the nation! We are abundantly blessed. 🌹
Isn't that the Rough Water Training Area for the CG where the Columbia River enters the Pacific? I've watched video's of the CG surfing waves with those Rescue Boat's... I'm retired Navy and I've seen my share but THAT was pretty wild if I do say so myself...😉
Astoria is a great little town.I have lived here for just about 60 years and the population is still reading around 10,000.The gillneters are just about unheard of anymore.The goverment has run the fishing Industry into the ground.
If Washington Irving knew what the government and utility companies did, in the name of the economy, he would be rolling in his grave. Shame on those that would destroy our precious life giving earth.
Fun Fact- Astoria Oregon is where after only a short telephone discussion with Colleen at the Astoria Chamber of Commerce, the world-famous philanthropist Niles Standish decided to establish his revolutionary community-integrated rehabilitation facility Lollypop House!
I WAS BORN HERE BUT I WAS ADOPTED IN NORTH CAROLINA , I NEVER GOT TO GROW UP IN ASTORIA BECAUSE MY PARENTS LEFT NOT TOO LONG AFTER I WAS BORN TO GO TO N.C., I ALWAYS WANTED TO SEE ASTORIA AND NOW I AM 60 YEARS OLD LIVING IN LOUISIANA. I HOPE BEFORE I LEAVE THIS WORLD THAT I WILL GET TO GO TO SEE ASTORIA.
sheryl reyes I was adopted here too and I've lived here all my life and if you can't get there in person I have pictures of many beautiful places and I wouldn't mind sharing them with someone that would like to see them

sheryl reyes - I was born in Astoria and go back to visit whenever I can. I hope you get to visit. Astoria must be experienced to be fully appreciated, especially in the winter.
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.

If you go to Astoria , unfortunately you will not have much to see. Most of the stores are closed up and the town is dying. I noticed this the last time I was there in 2018. This was BEFORE COVID-19 of course. I can't imagine what its like now.
We're doing alright. Business are constantly closing down, just to have another one open up in it's place. I live in Astoria and i have a hard time keeping track of the new stores.
Yes, when he "discovered" the Columbia River I was laughing...knowing that people had been using that river, people from all over since records were kept, as far back as the fourteen and fifteen hundreds. But those early people didn't war against the people already here. They traded with them, and traveled without conflict. Even today there are people who can travel the world, no problems. Then there are those who are so ignorant they can't go across town without having issues with people.
Grew up there over fifty years ago......it was very cool with very cool people...the last ten or 15 years, though, its been turned into a tourist trap, the cool people and families that lived there are gone and we have a bunch of assholes from California, the midwest and east coast who have moved here and fucked it all up. Too bad, it really was the place to be in the 1950s-60s &70s
I hope that im not bothering you to much by asking if you knew my grandparents, you see my grandmother Blanch Enlund people called her peggy and my grandfather David Enlund lived there for many years. Peggy was head of Toast Masrers and attended the First Presbyterian Church and organized the Scandinavian festivals for many years. Grandpa David Was a Tug boat captian for many years and his tug The Peacock is in the Maritime Museum, wich i have yet to have ever been there to see in my 48 years of life......
Assholes from the mid-west? Most of the people in the mid-west are far nicer than you folks out west, not to mention the complete lack of customer service, no public restrooms, etc. You guys really know how to treat people like crap! Your attitude is just more evidence.
Astorias’ history began long before your story did. Begin this history lesson where it started, the men that went over the top of the mountain, and came down and built Fort Astoria. My great great, great grandmother was the princess of the chief of the Clatsop tribe.
That is not a beaver that you are showing, that is a nutria that is not native and did not exist at the time that Astoria was founded. BTW, my great grandfathers moved there from Norway and Sweden over 115 years ago to fish the Columbia, my son was the last generation on my side of the family to commercial fish the river, other parts of the family still do. I live upriver on my sailboat about 80 miles from Astoria.
Why don’t you talk about the Astoria group that came over the mountains with John Astoria and Joseph Gervais with his wife and others that begins before the rest of this, so why are you leaving this out?
Sadly, the homeless alcoholics, meth & heroin addicts are now taking over the sidewalks & parks, having filled Seattle & Portland to overflowing. The NW corner of the state of Oregon...badly needs an "enema"...
And now it's 2020 and let the sea lions, seals eat up the salmon. All they want because they won't kill the damn things. I remember 30 years ago the first sea lion, in the Columbia. I told my wife at the time someone needs to kill that son of a bitch. now there's thousands eating up the salmon and the sturgeon... they say they don't eat sturgeon I was at Bonneville watching those damn things eating breakfast. big sturgeon big one's.
Right about the time of the Goonies movie I was a kirby guy. 1985 86 87 we sold a lot of kirby's. Especially in Longview across the river... I never met such warm welcoming folks and I went all over. We took over the jacuzzi suites at the seaside hotel and ran phone girls and salesmen. And the ABC volleyball tournament went off and it was like one big party everywhere... really wonderful hobbits in their holes all over the place
I used to sell Kirby vacuums as well for one of my first jobs. Never had much luck selling an $1800 vacuum when you can get a decent one for $80. Though, they are top-notch cleaning machines.
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!
Lisa’s Chi Chi Chan - Everyone born anywhere in the Americas is a native American, as far as I am concerned. The Amerinds fought each other over land too, you know.
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.
It's sad all American history is about progress moving in and destroying a place. I work in habitat restoration and we try to rebuild salmon habitat on the Columbia River. All anyone cares about is the dollar
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.
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.
Yeah, how could anyone try to pass off a nutria for a beaver? It's kinda insulting. Good show otherwise, though.
3:51 specifies beaver and "other fur bearing animals." At 5:37 if you look closer the thick tail is a beaver.
