Checking His Dams

Description
This Beaver resides in a number of sloughs or water basins on Haida Gwaii that are joined by creeks. He spends his time damming up both ends and checking on them regularly. A couple of these water basins empty into others under roadway pipes so the road crews have to come in and break the dams when the water gets too high. This keeps the beaver in work so he doesn't have to collect unemployment wages.
