Do retards build this abomination in your country as well?Just spent two hours demolishing 6 of these at the local rivert. frenchfag
>>2758289I like making them. Damming things up is fun
>>2758289I've seen them on my local river here in New England. I always dismantle because I can't stand people tampering and doing selfish bullshit like this. Leave shit alone I says.
>>2758289>He doesn’t understand the enjoyment one feels from terraformingYou’re a nigger, aren’t you
>>2758289clam gardens are an ancient tradition and the people who built them knew a hell of a lot more about how to live on/in the land than some retarded OP on /out/..
>>2758321>he doesn't understand that this "innocent" enjoyment destroys the natural beauty of riversBegone spiritual negro, go throw some plastic bottles in the sea or somethingI'm better than you
>>2758326There are no native fresh water clams in France faggotThese dams are a nuisance to our local fauna and flora
>>2758294Beaver hands typed this post
>>2758326There's a couple old ruins of them in my area that are still visible at low tide after hundreds of years. Pretty cool seeing the footsteps of the ancestors
>>2758289Never seen these before but I will destroy them if I see them
>>2758331i find that hard to believe, unless your water is so polluted for centuries that youve killed off all the sea life (not surprised). french people are trash
>>2758346hell yeah bud, you got any petroglyhs there too? theres cup marks and figurative images in the boulders along the shoreline here that date to at least 500 bce
>>2758351>sea life>fresh water river???
>>2758331There's several species of freshwater mussels all over europe, including france. For example river mussels of the genus Unio. Most of them are threatened due to pollution and degradation of heir habitat. A little rockdam like that is not bothering anything in the river. If it does anything at all, it makes a little pool of slower currents and deeper water that some species might aggregate in. The only ones bothered by them are autists.
>>2758388>There's several species of freshwater mussels all over europe, including franceHuh, just looked and you're right>A little rockdam like that is not bothering anything in the riverThat's where you're wrong though, these rock dams stop fish from moving freely in our rivers, they elevate water temperature which fucks with the fish and makes algae proliferate like crazy. This is especially exacerbated since in the Mediterranean region I'm in, the water level gets very low during summer so the fish NEED any kind of unimpeded cool water they can get>The only ones bothered by them are autists.Yeah, so?
>>2758390>these rock dams stop fish from moving freely in our riversYeah if they're 2 meters highFish know how to get over small shoals (which is what these are), they either jump or just wait for the next high water to get over it, which will most likely wash open the rock chain anyway
