A road crew in Washington is locked in an epic battle against a powerful foe:
A tenacious beaver!!
The crew has had to remove a beaver dam three times since August!
One of the dams was 40-feet-long and 3-feet-high!! Cray cray!!
The dams are near Port Orchard, across from Seattle. The problem, according to Jacques Dean, Kitsap County Roads Superintendent, is the water threatens to undermine bridge abutments.

But Jacques does appreciate the tenacious animal and is impressed by his work ethic.
So instead of just going out into the wilderness, butt naked, with nothing but a sharpened tree branch to try and hunt the beast, Jacques took a different approach…
The county spent $15,000 to hire a beaver trapper!
Check out the video (below) to learn a little more about this persistent beaver.
