CA already has plenty of beavers spreading up and down the state.

So, human-made dams that provide power and mitigation of flooding = bad. Beaver-made dams that do not provide power, flood random areas, and cut off water to random areas = good?

Okie day...

I cannot disagree with any plan that involves spreading beavers

I can just see all the gazillion water regulators, so used to munching on the sustenance of the people (OK, maybe not the best metaphor), giving up all their petty tyranny so a bunch of wild animals can do the job faster, cheaper, and more intelligently than they can.

“But beavers chop down trees... and environmentalists hate that! What a dilemma.”

But since trees are the leading cause of forest fires, they are solving two problems at once.

I think that is their plan. If a dam is ruined by beavers, the result is flooding, which can then be declared a wetland to be forever under government control whether or not it stays wet. If there are enough beavers spread out think of all the new wetland the environmentalists can claim to have created?

Since when have groups that propose to introduce or reintroduce animals ever care about the damage as a result?

Okay, I just had to...

Supplying “beavers” in one context could be bad, another context could be good. I’ll have to get back with you after reading the thread.

Poorly worded headline.
