Beavers built a damn in Alberta (850 meters) that is twice the length of the Hoover Dam. It isn’t the technical marvel as the Hoover Dam, but one would have to be lying to say it’s not impressive.
Extra info: we know it has existed since at least existed in 1975, as it’s visible in arial photographs. (Many from space).
So 50+ years for rodents maintaining a project seems pretty neat.
Also over in Europe sometime in the last several years, some beavers completed a dam that had been stalled in the planning and funding phase. The beavers just rolled up and in 24 hours with $0 in funding and built a dam in almost the exact spot that the planners were going to build them anyway.
Yeah after we slaughtered them to near extinction, it sounds like they are making a good comeback. (Fur hats and anal gland perfume have different yearning these days)
We still use anal gland stuff for cheap, faux vanilla flavoring 🤮🤮
For those curious, here’s a great write-up

I can’t imagine traveling that terrain any time other than winter; the muskeg is super tough to travel through when it’s not frozen and the mosquitoes would suck you dry.
Obviously you’ve never played Timberborn
Came here just to say this. OP need to play timberborn rn

Nor did any Hoovers.
Mainstream archeologists would like you to believe that.
But the truth will come out - it was aliens.Obligatory:
2, 2 beavers.

Obligatory you say:
What’s with the weirdly large rolled up flag on top of the building? Or is it something that’s been painted?
Am I tripping or is that the real life version of the damn in GTA V?
What about infinite beavers?
No but OP’s moms beaver really helped
Is this Hoover Dam ? I only knew it from New Vegas
The picture is beautiful and captured how big and grand the dam is. New Vegas didn’t manage to make the dam awe inspiring. There is a rumour of remaking New Vegas and hopefully that they re-skin and enlarge the scale of the dam.
New Vegas and Fallout 3 remasters are confirmed, as well as Obsidian working on another Fallout with Bethesda oversight and Fallout 5 in pre production with production ramping up after Elder Scrolls 6 releases.
