Beavers Besiege Beantown


First, in today's "Did you know?" news -- according to this rather hostile article in The New York Times entitled "Return of the Once-Rare Beaver? Not in My Yard," "There were tens and maybe hundreds of millions of beavers in North America before it was settled by Europeans." Who f'in knew?



Something about wetlands, flooding and Armageddon or something. Whatever. The poor beaver, just now finally making a long-awaited comeback here in the U.S. after years of exile, just can't catch a break. I think it's time for everyone to just take a deep breath, relax and show the beaver some love and respect. Damnit.
