Someone care to explain how that beaver got the U.K.? He sure as hell didn’t hitchhike. Sounds like someone needed a new dam and couldn’t afford to build one of their own....solution import a beaver or two and dam gets built.
You do know that beavers swim don't you? Approx. 4 years ago there were several beavers who dammed up the watershed drain on the eastern border of my subdivision (just north of Detroit in a very heavily populated area). Afraid that a heavy and prolonged rainstorm would cause the roadway to flood, a resident called the DNR to report the damn beavers and they came in, trapped 'em and took 'em away.
That there British beaver could very well be one of the beavers taken from my area......
The best way to determine that is to interview the beaver and if he doesn't have a Brit accent then it is definitely an American beaver.........
As for the road, its a good thing the DNR destroyed the dam because about a month later we did receive a heavy and long rainstorm that would have flooded the road had the dam been left.
I still miss the beavers tho........
