This adorable aquatic asshole took down one of the very few maple trees at my favorite island park.

You mean tree reuse service. Making sure entire ecosystems grow and survive. One of the most useful animals around to many others.

Certainly useful and vital. Unfortunately he's neither on this part of the river. It's a small (1/2 mile) stretch of river after a dam that is industrialized and flows to a big lake. I'm sure our DNR will relocate them upstream.

They'll move to a natural point and form their own pond as needed. Upstream I wouldn't know so I can't say it would be better or worse. Hopefully someone who is knowledgeable about the area(and species) has authority over it

I would think they are rather small, actually.
