Can't you just play the sound of running water and trigger their instinct? I feel like I read that sometime in the last few years.
Actually, I don't even know that you have to do that much I've seen videos of beavers in captivity seemingly trying to build a dam on dry land
I wonder if there's some kind of near-surface pipes they might hear water running through.
i mean looking at how all animals behave, in the absence of anything resembling their natural habitat they'd probably hear a fan running and feel it's close enough to running water.
Did you possibly read it in the comment immediately above yours which was posted 1 minute prior to yours, and then attribute it to an ancient memory?
My mom once told me "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" so I'm going to end my comment right here.
Me and you just think alike lol this post awakened the same sleeper memory in both of us :P
Also I think mine was technically after yours, there were no posts when I went to type my comment and yours popped up after I hit post lol
Naw, we posted at the same time. When I typed my comment (the one i assume you're refering to) there were no comments. Once I hit post this one was already here.
Great minds think alike or something like that lol
