If only I could teach the dog to do that

Busy beavers found a use for thousands of dollars stolen from a Greensburg casino and thrown into a creek, authorities said Sunday night.

Beavers building a dam on the creek apparently tore open one of three money bags and wove many of the bills into the sticks and brush of their dam, said Maj. Michael Martin of the East Feliciana Parish Sheriff's Office.

Deputies also recovered two other money bags, one of which had floated against the dam, Martin said.

No charges have been filed against the beavers, though their home was ransacked by the search.


Glad to see teh beavers aren't up on money laundering charges, or receiving stolen goods, or even profitiing from crime. And I hope my dog can be trained to retrieve bags of money now without charges, instead of just retrieving bags of rubbish.
