The Great Beaver Drop

I am reposting this because I accidently deleted it while editing.

This is the craziest thing I have ever hear of. I can't believe they did it, but it did work.

They dropped Beavers by parachute into remote areas where they were needed for water management.
The beavers did their job and they survive the crazy delivery method.

This was done in 1950 so the whole focus is on Beavers as fur. In fact they saw them as fur, not live animals to be respected.
I find the attitude horrible, but interesting that they realized that they needed beavers for water conservation even back then.
