Beaver-bombing sounds way cooler than it actually is
- Blasting "Ride of the Valkyries" as I carpet-bomb tributaries of the Thames with beavers wearing little parachutes
- Beaver bombing was actually extremely successful

unlimited beaver dams on english waterways
Beaver-punk is the future
in 1948, Idaho Fish & Game dropped 76 beavers by parachute into the state to help control erosion.
it had the lowest mortality rate out of any beaver relocation program they have tried previously
