Links: Beavers Gonna Beave

Not That Mike The Other Mike
Two side by side photos. Left, a beaver; right, a sign on a long wooden pole chewed by a beaver

Next, a sign warning about beavers destroying beaver warning signs will be destroyed by beavers.

    “Dwarf squirrel”? I haven’t even watched the video yet and I’m ded.

    Sentient Stack of Pancake’s little hand is killing me, too.

    Come on, people! I have work to do!

      Nope. Not gonna happen. Come to the cute side.

    Keep trying little guy Beaver are with the effort!

    If you never had Beaver Tails before this is what they look like.

      I think they call the same thing “elephant ears” in other parts of the country or in other countries, and usually sell them at amusement parks. By either name, they are delicious! I’ve only had a beaver tail once since I moved away from Ottawa, but sadly the food court has changed and no more beaver tail kiosk.
      Now I’m hungry!

        Elephant ears are sweet pastries where I grew up. Kind of like bear claws.

        Those beaver tails look interesting. Is this. Canadian thing like Tim Horton?

          Yes it’s a Canadian thing and it’s better than Timmies (Tim Horton)

      oh man

      Another reason to love beavers.

        Neal the seal would give his…seal of approval to the beaver vandalism. Down with vertical objects!

    The Polish beaver situation is so meta, it’s killt me! I love these sentient stacks of pancakes so much.

    Rinty’s story reminds me of the first John Scalzi novel I ever listened to, Agent to the Stars read by Wil Wheaton of Star Trek NG fame. I laughed so hard, I hurt myself.

    Beavers taking down the sign warning about beavers is just classic, had me cracking up. Maybe next time make the support post out of metal, let them try to gnaw on that. Teddy is an absolute doll, had never heard about dwarf squirrels before this. So happy, his rehabber decided to adopt him. And then that stack of pancakes!!! I’ve never seen a beaver that was so chunky, what gives?? Then the little grabby hands? I’m done for the day!

    ** looks down **

    I can empathize with that beaver. although thankfully more of a short stack than a tall stack.

      If we were bears, we’d be applauded.

      • Debg October 9, 2026 / 9:34 pm

        I’d be winning Fat Bear Week.
