More splinters and shredded bark are the latest clues turned up by Allen’s Landing beaver scrutinizer Christine Wilson. The most recent denudation (shown above) occurred off the park’s walking trail, not far from the aftermath of the last rodent-related incident Wilson documented, just east of the Travis and Milam street bridges over Buffalo Bayou. Another shot from over the weekend provides a wider view of the increasingly sparsely-forested bank:

Actually, it looks more like someone took an ax to it.
Beaver just wants to make a lake by allowing the bank to erode. I say let him do it. Could be good for tourism.
Just let beavers be beavers . . . probably a sign that the health of the BB waterway is improving.
Beavers like to eat every day. Hopefully a dam is coming soon
A dam will appear somewhere in the vicinity. May well have more structural integrity than the Oroville dam and spillway.
Beavers borrow bark by biting branches behind Buffalo Bayou.
im sick and tired of these beavers sneaking into our bayous and taking our dam jobs.
