Who doesn't love beavers? They are a major keystone species of the environment. Beaver ponds force more water to the aquifer, helps the local area survive droughts, and provide new aquatic homes. Beavers will create little irrigation canals that helps water local areas.

Conservatives hate wetlands, so they also hate beavers. I wish I was kidding or grossly oversimplifying, but it's the truth.
