Beavers are contributing to climate change, adding an estimated 800 million kg of methane to the atmosphere every year, scientists have found.
Over the last century, there has been a worldwide conservation effort to save beavers from extinction. The fur trade between the 16th and 19th century almost led to the annihilation of beavers across the globe.

Admin... “ith” should be “with”. Please adjust accordingly.

If they’re going to try and remove methane from the planet
Then I don’t stand a chance.
I can make a fart from a glass of water.

The header says it all. I was sorely tempted but I held back. It weren’t easy.

Well, one of the 3 had a good season, and the other has been undefeated since the early '90's

Somebody once posted a picture of a highway exit sign, for Big Beaver Road.
It was exit 69 as I recall, on Big Beaver Road.
And, speaking of beaver jokes, I remember in one of the Naked Gun movies, it looked like Leslie Nielsen was looking up a girl’s dress, and he said “some beaver”, but the girl was pulling a stuffed beaver out of an attic door on the ceiling.
Lotsa laughs. We have a sense of humor here at Free Republic. Unlike liberals who seem perpetually angry at everything they perceive to be wrong with the world.

There’s a “do you smoke after sex?” joke in there somewhere.

“he said some beaver, but the girl was pulling a stuffed beaver out of an attic door on the ceiling.”
LOL, but the actual quote is “nice beaver” though. And FYI that actress was Priscilla Presley (Elvis’ ex) whose skirt he was looking up.
