A few years ago a beaver started taking some trees from the wetland-type area of the back part of our property. It was pretty nice, actually. But he went too far, of course, and there was flooding a little downstream of us (really not much more than a drainage creek though technically it connects two bodies of water and is optimistically titled a "river"). So he (or she, I don't know) was trapped, and the free landscaping ended. Of course, it may have become a problem for me too, once I found my house in the middle of a new lake :)
