Photo Album: Beavers Flooding the Highway in Hopewell, NJ
Beavers were clogging up the Culver pipes and causing severe damage to the area.
Beaver Lodge
Here's where the beaver lodge was located. A beaver lodge is built out of twigs, sticks, rocks, and mud, and has an underwater entrance.
Flooding the Highway
The beavers were clogging up the culver pipe, which caused the highway to flood and cause several traffic accidents!
Removing the Clutter
After following all of NJ Fish & Wildlife guidelines and safely retrieving and relocating the beavers, we began to remove the debris from the culver pipes. As you can see, there was a lot!
Free from Debris
Now the culver pipes are free from debris, the water can properly recede to its original location, and the highway will no longer be flooded.
