Two beavers built a dam that prevented an 8,000-gallon diesel
fuel spill from contaminating the water of Utah's Willard Bay
State Park. The brave beavers are currently receiving treatment
at a local wildlife rehabilitation center after being coated in
the toxic fuel. One beaver was already recovering when the
other, which was in worse condition, was brought to the center.
According to DaLyn Ericksonexecutive director of the
rehabilitation center, their condition is improving. “They are
doing fairly well. One is coping better than the other,” she
told the Salt Lake Tribune“There is some evidence they did at
least sample some of the food left for them overnight. We are
doing what we can and hoping for the best.”  As a sign of their
appreciation, several locals have donated cottonwood branches
and willow to feed the beavers. They're also feasting on
carrots, yams, apples and a spring greens salad mix as they
recover.  [via Discovery News]
