The world would be very different if not for this little eco creator! Some native Americans legends have them as the builds of the world! Lol hard to disagree with that. 😉
I seem remember reading a report that said they they respond to the sound of running water, and will put sticks and mud over a loud speaker that's producing the right sound.
I'm so thrilled by this zoo. I grew up in pdx and remember the zoo from when I was a child. It is so amazing now! The video quality is amazing, the habitats and enrichment activities are so much better, the animals are so well cared for. Props and thanks to everyone involved
Do you provide them with sticks? How often do you have to disassemble their dams? Do they seem sad when they see their dam is gone? Let's get some more dam facts here! Hahaha!
thank you for providing them the space and time to complete their life's work 🙌🏽🙏🏽. Im sure they were getting bored with just bringing sticks back to their little den.
Love IT! This is SO Entertaining & Sweet ~ Love these Guys 💝🌞🌲if this doesn't make a person Smile... Thanks SO much for Keeping them Happy & Healthy in captivity ~
There is nothing funnier than a beaver periodically swimming hundreds of feet from their nest to make the most aggressive territorial displays because they hate your campfire that is 50 ft from the pond, they have so much attitude lol.
Do they get a new location to build a dam or do you disassemble them so they have to rebuild it? Do they have trees to cut down to help with their teeth' growth?
they probably just have this one area with the running water and they just remove the dam the beavers have built there from time to time so they can do it again!
they build dams since in winter they store food in the lakes they build aka logs they hate the sound of water running since that means their habitat will drain and they will die when winter comes around also they are safes in the lakes they build and don't like to go on land therefor will build canals into the forest so incase there is a danger they can quickly get into safety also they do need dams for their shelter as they always have the way in under the water and people say not even beers can break into their shelter i hope this did answer some of your questions but this is 4 am for me and i lost all life to type with commas and shit like that so i hope it aint to confusing :P
At the Oregon Zoo, they try to keep most of the Animals enriched in case some like the beaver here have to go back to the Wild. They do something similar at the Local Safari.
I love that Filbert is the branch manager and Maple is the stick broker!! They are an adorable duo that brings a smile to all
And while they may not be employed by a bank, they clearly like to work alongside one.
@@stvbrsn very punny and true!
@@stvbrsn : I see what you did there. I read your comment with interest.
Must. Build. Dam.
Beavers are absolutely amazing - the benefits they bring to nature are outstanding - creating habitats etc.

True but if trees could talk they would have a different opinion of them. ;)
@@CatherinePuce lmao 🤣 balance on every side
Maple and Filbert are so hardworking and determined! Well done! Hope humans will help to protect wildlife species and their natural habitats! 👌👍👏❤
Anicia Wong Humans already do protect wildlife species and their natural habitats for a very long time now.
Master Engineers!
Much respect!

I vaguely remember something like that too.
I never realized just how cute their flipper butts are.
Sound of running water triggers hard work
The sound of flowing water is the sound of the devil -- and it must be stopped!! 😂

Maple’s been strongly hinting for that indoor jacuzzi 🥳❤️❤️❤️

Yes! I have all those questions too! Dam facts!
X4 on those questions.
Too many god DAM questions here
Right!
@brokenupbeat I'd be very surprised if google had answers to those specific questions. It's just a search engine.
Ahhhhh,hence the term....busy as a beaver....they’re adorable.
Nature’s architectural engineers. Instinct plus mad Jenga skills. Amazing to see these two work. TY from Indy!👍❤️🏁
Is there running water?
↓
[Yes]

Put a stick on it. Has the water stopped?
↓
[No]

Put more sticks on it.
Is that a *_flow_* chart? ;-)
Canada's national animal! I used to get so excited when I was a kid if we saw a beaver dam. Love these two.
Let me know when they free i need them to build my dam😆😆😆
You guys never quit with the punnery, I love it.
I hope they were successful. That water was pouring out pretty fast! 😉
*Hark! Rushing water!”
Challenge accepted! ✅
THAT CUT IN THE BEGINNING. WTF????? masterful film making
Some animals just love and need to work!
Just amazing builder's. I love they way they walk through the human area minding their own business. Have work to do folks!
Brilliant to watch them building
Worlds greatest engineers.
bring Maple and Filbert to my house...I have some trees that need to be relocated and they'd make a damn fine dam !!! ;D
Fascinating to watch, they seem quite focused ❤️
Best “dam” video I have ever seen! Lol.....as always thank you. Great stuff
lol, look at them little busy builders.
Self-evidently, Filbert and Maple are Dam good engineers.
He's lovely. Thank you.
thank you for providing them the space and time to complete their life's work 🙌🏽🙏🏽. Im sure they were getting bored with just bringing sticks back to their little den.
So much work , 😀♥🌹😙♥♥♥ , so grateful for the video ♥🌹😙
Enrichment providers it seems you know how to rock it
So diligent!
Thank you for sharing this fascinating enrichment exercise with us!
Maple and Filbert are amazing.
The best two engineers in maple and giant flibert
I love their waddle walk
The old saying " busy as a beaver ".
Now that was some impressive ASMR.
I’ve become obsessed with beavers❤
'for so many years had searched now can see the beaver and the building..🐾🐾
👍
Dam, that's a nice dam!
It's damn that's a nice dam.
That’s what they were born to do 😂😂
They're like ... Yeah, we're just doing our job ... ☺️
So cute !!! 🥰💓💌
Love IT! This is SO Entertaining & Sweet ~ Love these Guys 💝🌞🌲if this doesn't make a person Smile... Thanks SO much for Keeping them Happy & Healthy in captivity ~
If they succeed, the office will be flooding.
Running water? Can’t have that! Engineer mode, activate!
GOOD JOB !!!
Wonderful !

0:07 Ngl that cut was clean
Beaver construction ASMR
Very cool to see- thank you!
Nature's engineers.
They are so smart...I saw a video of a lady fostering a beaver and he was building a dam in the house and had chewed her walls and door frames.lol.
Omg I could watch this all day long so amazing!
niiiice transition at 00:10
Love watching them work 🥰. No one tell them they can go out back and pull the power plug😂
Great seeing them do this!
The description is the best hahaha. Imagine having to build a dam with your mouth. 😆😆😆
Geniuses!So happy they get to be!💗
Fascinating. Amazing.
they are so cute
I approve this dam construction!
I really thought they'd use their paws more... it's like watching a bird build a nest
Smart critter
(0:58)
😂
He do be buildin though
Busy as beaver, no wonder.
best dam ever
Now do Filbert and Maple have a certified engineering degree? Because. Nowadays you can't work without one. 😀😀😀
Beavers are the Frank Lloyd Wright's of the animal world
❣️
Damn good dam bro .
awwwww
Man I want to get in that water with him
Where are their safety vests, hard hats and support boats? OSHA would not approve!
They need mud!
Beavers have bigtime building OCD.
Well, it’s very easy to relate to these guys if (like me) you have Asperger’s syndrome!
Autistic little beavers. Love ‘em!
brokenupbeat sure! All wild animals are, at least when viewed from a human perspective. That’s what autistic people are... feral humans.
Do they get a new location to build a dam or do you disassemble them so they have to rebuild it? Do they have trees to cut down to help with their teeth'
growth?
Does anybody else notice they're not building the dam in the right spot ?
Am assuming you planned for this? Enclosure is not going to flood?
they probably just have this one area with the running water and they just remove the dam the beavers have built there from time to time so they can do it again!
Is there a reason why they build the dam at the waterfall and not further down the stream.
Can they stop the water
Why do beavers instinctively build dams even when (due to the great care you take of them!) they don't need to build dams for food or shelter?
Because they're cool? 😀 I love footage I've seen from inside beaver dams- in one they even shared it with a mink
they build dams since in winter they store food in the lakes they build aka logs they hate the sound of water running since that means their habitat will drain and they will die when winter comes around also they are safes in the lakes they build and don't like to go on land therefor will build canals into the forest so incase there is a danger they can quickly get into safety also they do need dams for their shelter as they always have the way in under the water and people say not even beers can break into their shelter i hope this did answer some of your questions but this is 4 am for me and i lost all life to type with commas and shit like that so i hope it aint to confusing :P

@@mek2995 "Because they're cool" is the best answer 👏
It's what they do.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Do you Know what you're doing???
And here I thought beavers made such neat and tidy dams....
If you tell a beaver they can't build a dam do they get mad?
Cuties :)
Sucks when you see beautiful talented animals being taken outside their environment for greedy humans entertainment. Sigh
Why do beavers build dams.
To create lakes and marshland. Protection from predators and easier for them to move in water than on land
