Lessons From Nature Beavers By Sliver
In the hurried human life we overlook nature's teachings and laws such as simplicity. The author recalls watching beavers at Sans Souci and Black Hawk creek, noting their intelligent dam and home building, their use of tools and materials, and the ceaseless work required to maintain and repair. These wrecked habitats reflect lost natural lessons that civilization has erased.
