Beaver Dam Goes Tumbling Down

This peaceful pond scene from northern Minnesota was due in part to a family of beavers that bit by bit built a nine-foot dam to stem the tide. And, then, there was none. The beavers have been building on this dam, adding one and a half feet in height per year for the last 7 years. Needless to say, they reached the limit of 9 feet and it spontaneously collapsed draining the whole pond in about 4 hours. Thankfully no one was near the spillway when it blew.
