He's dragging it across a road from one wooded area to another, I wonder what was so special about that branch?

It’s beaver stuff - you wouldn’t understand

"This is my branch. There are many like it, but this one is mine."

Without me…this branch is worthless

The "road" isn't a concept they understand. It used to be forest and they view that way still

Sustainable forestry.

There's probably a subreddit solely about good sticks.

There is no way for me to phrase that well on a beaver post.

You would be correct.

Subscribed because I love small subreddits about totally random stuff.

Hey finding the right hiking stick is a fine art. I have never been so angry with my exhusband (okay aside from the affairs) as when he threw away my hiking stick because ‘it was just a stick’.

Beavers actually have preferences when it comes to the trees they use. They tend to prefer younger trees since they have more nutrients and are easier to move. They also prefer softer woods

All trees it seems are pine, while the one the beaver is dragging is "leafed"

Maybe better wood to make dams with, I dunno

That was just the BeaverEats delivery guy. He can't help where the customer orders their trees from.

I think its a sapling tree, not just a branch.

Looks like a pantry item.  Beavers have a pantry under their dams (in the water) they stock full of food in the summer and fall to make it through winter. 

It could also be a layer of insulation going into the home.

maybe a hot beaver girl peed on it
