Beavers make dams by felling nearby trees with their awesome incisors. Most times, the tree falls across the water, but not always. Then, they cut smaller branches from the felled tree and gather them into what is, basically, a logjam. They are known to create small canals for travel to and from the pool they create. There's alot more to it than just collecting pieces of wood and putting it into a river until there is a wall in the river.

The beavers also construct a dome-shaped home with a subterranean entrance. The entryway usually has two or three sharp turns in it to prevent other, larger animals from entering.
