Known for its paddle-shaped tail and friendly, toothy face, the beaver is a living, gnawing symbol of Canada's industrious spirit.
But don't be fooled by the cute and furry appearance.The big rodents can be dam ferocious.
Beaver attacks are on the rise in Edmonton. In the past month, several people have reported that their dogs have been attacked at the Terwillegar off-leash park.
Some pets have suffered serious injuries, and people are being encouraged to keep their dogs out of the water.

“The big rodents can be dam ferocious.”
Was that a spelling error or an attempt at word play on beaver dams?

I’ll say! I once was attacked by a giant beaver and barely
escaped with my life only because I was able to hold my breath for 45 minutes

Known for its paddle-shaped tail and friendly, toothy face, the beaver is a living, gnawing symbol of Canada's industrious spirit. That's why their national flag depicts two white guys butting heads and screaming at each other against a red background.

LOL! I just replied on the other thread that it takes a lot of guts for a guy to admit he has a tiny keyboard.

When I was Single I usually had to buy them Dinner before experiencing a Beaver attack.
In my experience, the more aggressive the Beaver, the better.
