For a second I though this thread was about my ex-girlfriend,
but then I saw that it read "biggest beaver dam..." not "biggest dam beaver...":poosie:

This 850m long beaver dam in Alberta, Canada, is the world's biggest and can be seen from space. Beavers have been building the dam since 1975


it is thought that several beaver families joined forces to create the massive dam that contains thousands of trees and must have taken many months to complete
