This is freaking awesome.  There is a reason why beavers are "Key Stone" species up north.

For some reason I'm reminded of the Kids in the Hall "Bikini Inspector" sketch....
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Hands some class over to greens.  :D

This article is very interesting. One might wonder just how smart some of these animals are in this world that we take for granted. A few weeks ago, I was watching on the Discovery channel about how the bottlenose dolphins hunt. There hunting tactics are very complex. One dolphin will swim fast in a circle to stir up the dirt, then the fish and krill will swim to surface while the rest of the dolphin hunting pack will go in for the feast. Each dolphin takes its turn in stirring up the dirt.
