Then why not live away from the river or maybe in a lake?

While working as engineers, beavers still can't afford to live in the city considering the high cost for housing.

They have been known to live in lakes, and when they do they dig dens under the shoreline.

The reason they don't like the sound of running water is the same reason we don't like to hear the sound of unexplained running water in our homes, it's a sign of a leak. The only difference is for them it's instinctual, and for us we understand the consequences of a leak in our home.

Well, they do live in a lake, they just have to build it.

I believe the way they build their burrows doesn't work well without the flooding part.

Some religions had sacred prostitutes, thus I'd say it's debatable.

"Hey Bob, I see you hired a plumber, what's going on?"

"I heard the sound of a leak in our bathroom wall. Hired a plumber to find it and fix it."

"You're such a dumbass, Bob."
