And that has persisted in people's minds.
A lot of people reference watching that movie as the reason they think that beavers eat fish.
And then we manage beavers to protect the fish, which doesn't make sense because they don't eat the fish.
So we wanted to avoid the kind of myths.
Oh, beavers eat plants.
They eat the bark off of trees.
They eat pond weeds, lilies, cattails, grasses, sedges, fruits.
They love a good sweet potato in a rehab situation, but they certainly don't eat meat.
They're vegetarians.
Entirely.
Yeah.
One of the big ones was that if you have one beaver, you're suddenly going to have a million beavers on your property.
And I think the movie actually kind of played around with this one a little bit because you see the beavers in the movie and there are a lot in one space.
And that's not accurate.
Beavers are very territorial.
They just like to hang out with their families.
But I think the movie did a good job of showing it wasn't natural to have all those animals packed into that really small space.
That was something they were doing out of stress because we couldn't coexist with them very well.
I do, especially with kids.
I think that a lot of people will never get the chance to encounter beavers when they're growing up.
