Beaver oiling fur - GIF

Yeah they're pretty gross. They eat low quality food that's very difficult to digest, so they... ahem... recycle in order to give their digestive tract a second go at extracting nutrients. There used to be two that lived in my back yard. They'd come right up to the house. This one is named Jerkface McGee, because he dropped a tree on my truck and regularly stole my tools. He also used to love stealing wires.

Also my girlfriend had this nice rosebush on the front of the house that she really liked. Jerkface would walk through 100 feet of alders and birch (the trees that he liked), go to the far side of the house, just so he could snip off pieces of the rose bush. We regularly had to chase him out of there. But one night he took the entire rose bush and won that battle. He doesn't even like rose bushes. They stab him in the mouth. Look at all the faces he's making in this video because the thorns are getting him. What an idiot.
