Beavers parachuted in to wilderness in archive film

Archive footage of a group of beavers being parachuted into wilderness in the US has been found by historian Sharon Clark.

The film, made around 1950, was lost for years; it had been labelled incorrectly and stored in the wrong file.

The air drops were conducted by the Idaho Department of Fish and Game because they had an overpopulation of beavers in some areas.

It is thought all of the animals made it through their flights unharmed.

Well I thought it was interesting, unless you look at is a food drop for wolves and bears..

I wonder what the Beavers thought of the whole process?

I didn't say it wasn't interesting. Weird things can be interesting.

Sometimes, actually, the weirder the better, lol.

LOL. He's probably thinking "Man's best friend? Screw that! When I get down, I'm making peace overtures to the cat!"

If that is an expansion on post #2 I think you might want to start a new thread.
