The Pond & Beavers - Big Component of the Farm Restoration Project

The Beaver battle was 5 years of taking apart BEAVER DAMS by hand and Team Beaver constantly rebuilding Dams. Beavers had 25 years to takeover the 2 miles of Ditches and Pond built by the US Corp of Engineers in the early 1950s. We would hunt the Beaver Crew some nights but they kept going. Beavers are very Tenacious Engineers! I finally found a 73 year old man that had trapped Beavers his entire life. I can not find his contact information or remember his name. He was the MAN who finally WON the Beaver Battle. Since the Beavers moved I have spent MANY HOURS cleaning up the mess felt by TEAM BEAVER!
