That's right, delicious and nutritious beavers are returning to the Detroit River after being gone for decades. This is an encouraging sign that efforts to clean up the waterways are working. See, it's not all almost-free homes and urban blight.
(I made up the stuff about beavers being delicious and nutritious)
The Detroit Free Press reports that a beaver lodge has been discovered in an intake canal at a Detroit Edison riverfront plant. Officials believe the beaver spotted by the utility's motion-sensitive camera marks the animal's return to the river for the first time in at least 75 years.

After the D.N.R. took a photo of it and put it in the papers, 5 more people across southern Michigan came forward and said they had seen wolverines also. They said they didn't report them before because they were afraid people would call them crazy.
If people wouldn't report a wolverine because of passable ridicule, I wonder what else might have been seen, and not reported for fear of being called crazy.
Anyway, with so many people moving out of Detroit, my guess is that it will just get nicer and nicer for those who stay.
LOL !!
