Who was responsible for yelling ”TIMBER!”?
An unfortunate beaver in Vennesla municipality in southern Norway was hit by a tree, and died. – This is a totally unique case, says zoologist.
Leif Hægeland was chopping wood outdoors when he saw the tragic work accident.
– I was chopping wood outdoors when I saw a large birch felled by beavers. When I got a little closer, I saw a beaver lying crushed under the tree.http://www.nrk.no/sorlandet/_-jeg-h...-liv_-men-aldri-noe-sant-som-dette-1.12310194
He has been working as a logger for twenty-five years and tells that what he observed was really something extraordinary.
– I have seen many beavers in my life, but never anything like this, says Hægeland.
– I am not sure what might have happened. Maybe the beaver jumped to the wrong side when the tree fell, another theory is that there were two beavers, and it did not pay attention,
Editor’s Note: Our thoughts go to the beaver’s family and other hard working, uninsured animals out there who risk their lives every day.
RIP
