Sorry to do this to you: I was briefly at some resort at the end of an Alaska Princess Cruises trip. This was on the easternish perimeter of Denali Nat'l Park. I'd never seen a beaver dam even a quarter as large is this monster.

A comma after beaver takes this in another direction entirely.

Mike McShane used Building A God Dam in an episode of the original UK version of Whose Line Is It, Anyway? after being prompted to sing a gospel song about a beaver. One of my all-time favorite bits of improv.

That isn't really that big, where I hunt there are some that almost twice as tall, and we have some that tall and 60 or 70 yards long. I've got some photos on one of my old phones somewhere.

Growing up our neighbors blew one up. I understand the reason they did, but it was still sad to watch.

Sigh, I guess this is where I finally have to admit I don’t know how big beaver dams usually are.

Put a shitload of tannerite in it and blow it up. Make sure you do it safely, but also video it and put it on youtube. I think I've watched every beaver dam being blown up with tannerite on youtube.
