>>5017245are these just the wood pellets you put in those fancy smoker grills? Which flavor of wood do the beevs like best?
>>5017596Beavers don't actually eat wood. They eat a very thin layer of it that they can digest. They don't have the microbiome to digest lignin or cellulose.
>>5017648can't believe Angry Beavers lied to me.
>>5017648>They don't have the microbiome to digest lignin or cellulose.Do we?
>>5017797No
>>5017797No. We can't either. It's why we suck at digesting plant matter and only shit like fruits and vegetables that are basically fleshy material for seeds is even edible to us. If you tried eating grass or wood you'd ultimately just starve to death. To digest it well you need what herbivores have which is basically a fermentation chamber. Or have a microbiome adapted for it like termites. Even shit like carpenter ants don't eat wood though they chew through it. Cellulose is very difficult to digest, lignin even moreso. Very few things are capable of getting anything out of it.
>>5017245It's like they're scared people terrified of the big kaiju

What did Bobr mean by this?
>>5017999testing the limits of his abilities
>>5017999Bipolar beavercant finish what he starts For real it's probably because the snow melted and suddenly the tree was 3 feet taller. Beavers act funny in the snow
Did you know beavers are one of the few mammals to have a cloaca?
>>5018308Weird. I thought that was just a bird/reptile or monotreme thing. Why do beavers have that?
>>5018350God just thinks theyre better that way

New one, hot off the presses
Does anyone have this beaver webm? I saved it but any time i try to post it, 4chan says its a corrupted file.https://arch-img.b4k.dev/v/1752949800019.webm
>>5019685
>>5019285Do they bite each other like capybaras do?
>>5017245TIL beavers have grabby hands
Two beavers playfighting from tonights walk. In the end a total of 5 beavers were piled up on each other :)
>>5021056Of course. How do you think they grab the sticks, hammers, and nails used to build the dams?
>>5019086LET ME GO! I'M ONE OF YOU! NESOKRUSHIMIYA I LEGENDARYA! TOGETHER WE WILL ACCOMPLISH THE OPERATSYA!
>>5021070Hot, wet beaver action
>>5019785why is he cooming
>>5022936The apple is just that good
>>5019785Apple too sour for bobr?
>>5022964It kept eating afterwards, so maybe not.
>>5021134Kek.
>>5022291Back in the heady days when you could order a beaver from a catalogue and it'd arrive at your doorstep within 24 hours.
>>5019785Is he boggling like a rat?
>>5023571yeah, all rodents can do iti wonder what the purpose of it is though
>>5019079BEHOLD:A MAN!

>>5019082Was that a wallabee the AI beaver walked by?
>>5019917
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCC_ErQ-GnwMaybe someone could convert parts of this to a webm with sound. The noises she makes while throwing a tantrum are hilarious
>>5029380Why do they do this? They ruined two trees and arent even finishing the job
>>5030588to piss off boomers
>>5030588They wait for the wind to finish them off
>>5026284Looks like a mara to me. They are a bit smaller than capybaras and very docile, they are often kept in open/petting areas of zoos.

>>5019084he's rubbing his anal gland oil on himself
>>5031233dang, I have more in common with beavers than I thought
Thanks to these invasive pieces of shit, the wetlands next to my property is now a fetid stagnant swamp. Even after a few other locals shot them all, the damage they've already done is irreversible. Fuck those bastards. If I ever see one around here again, I will greet it with a .45-70. The authorities even dynamited some of the dams afterward, which helped drain some spots, but not nearly enough and it certainly can't regrow several decades worth of extremely precious trees in this area. Total Beaver Death
>>5031243t. butthurt Argie
>>5031243Was anything done with the dead beavers?
>>5031291Bear hunters used them for bait.
>>5031243Ayo dis nigga got BEAVED!
>>5031243>extremely precious trees
Aren't you glad beavers lose their whiny voice when they grow up?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yd58TchPC64
>>5032292i like their pingu noises actually. Especially when they get cranky like here >>5029635

This thread has been up for over 41 days
>>5037596Rightfully soLike a beaver dam, it requires dilligent maintenance
>>5037687sooooooooooo anyone tried to smell one IRL?>>5019199>>5019084
>>5039061i got very close to a local pair of beavers but they ran off
>>5041357What are they in for
>>5041357Being gnawty.
Beavers are cool and good at construction>>5039061They probably don't smell like vanilla. It's probably more like a cologne at most.
>>5043841its smells like pungent vanilla. Imagine not taking a shower for awhile but than add vanilla flavoring and thats castoreum.
>>5043847Sounds like what I was imagining. Then yeah people were probably cutting the glands out and soaking them in alcohol or something.
>illegal capy in your pondWhat would you do?https://www.youtube.com/shorts/n0FCKN96VSQhttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/Yva5QkbIh6Y
What is this expression? Is it anger? Is it fear?Also look at the capybara's massive shits floating in their water lol.

Is there an animal, other than humans, which has a more profound impact on its environment than the beaver?
>>5017797>got to thinking maybe I'm the beaver born and I just don't know it yet
How did they get so good at selling cheap gas and making brisket?>>5037687Fun fact, castoreum is actually really really expensive so it's more likely that you've had actual Vanilla than castoreum.
>>5017952this is one of my life goals
>>5046230Some elephants perhaps. They destroy forests and create savanna.
>>5046230>that picbut why?

>>5046230>Is there an animal, other than humans, which has a more profound impact on its environment than the beaver?Pretty much every animal on earth when their population gets out of control and left uncheck. Same with insects. Just to give you an idea, not long ago researchers and astronauts monitoring earth through space with satellite images noticed strange patterns in certain locations around the world when viewed from space. One location deep inside a rain forest(I can't remember the location), they noticed weird circular patterns forming. Researchers expected something man made because of how perfect the circles were and how they only recently, at the time, showed up and would eventually send a team of experts to go check it out on foot.As they got there they noticed the area was like a swamp with a lot of grassy plains and the circles were giant grassy hills. When they dug up the hills is when they found out it was noting but a pile worms underneath and the giant grassy hill was just a giant pile of worm poop with grass and moss growing to make it look like a grassy plain. The reason being was that it was the perfect location for the worms as it hid them from their natural predators so they were able to live and breed unchecked under giant piles of poop that was big enough to form giant hills that can bee seen from space. The size of the worms were fairly large too just add more proof that they've been living long healthy lives.People who say humans fucked the planet don't know shit about what animals and insects can do when left unchecked.

Look at this beaver react to being picked up as the keeper tries to corral him back to his den>nnnN NGHHH! nuh... (without dropped the food) lolhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pLQ_NQ9ogs&t=603s
>>5052435beavers lose their baby faces so quickly
>>5052435What goes on in the beaver brain at this moment? "Am I being wrestled by king beaver? This feels nostalgic?" If there were an animal that might have an opinion on being lifted up by hands, it'd have to be beavers.
>>5054391The shit beaver adults have to put up with the moment they stop looking "sleepy-cute".
>>5055360what the fuck was his problem
I wonder what Tirasu, the grumpy bachelor beaver >>5019186 thinks of his brother Kaffe having a wife and 3 kids >>5055360
Nice beaver!
>>5055541What are the beaver names and family relations? I don't know japanese, but I think "Kaffe" is for English "coffee"
>>5017245I thought they eat trees.
>>5055585You got me curious so I went to look it up, found goldhttps://x.com/vibaotter/status/1835148842272268357A whole family tree for beavers in Kyushu region zoos.So at Nagasaki Biopark there are currently two beaver enclosures along a hill. At the top is the flamingo pond >>5019077In the middle is bachelor Terasu >>5019192 >>5019201 >>5019186At the bottom is Kaffe(pronounced cafe), Wakaba and their 3 pups NukuNuku, Shakashaka and Kashiwa. >>5019184 >>5019202 >>5035132 >>5055103 >>5055360I thought Terasu (tiramisu) and Kaffe (cafe) were brothers due to their coffee-themed names but that's not true. Terasu is actually the brother of Kaffe's wife, Wakaba.
>>5055610Are these Eurasian or American beavers?
>>5055590They eat the upper layer of live wood, just beneath the bark.
>>5055943american fatties
>>5019201lol the kid is already going bald
>>5017875uh follow up question then can i ferment grass like sauerkraut or kimchi then eat it? What if i use cow rennet? Like can i live off grass then?
>>5031243>shot themYou're an asshole
