The State of Michigan threatened beavers with $10,000 fine.
In 1997, Stephen Tvedten’s neighbors noticed flooding on his property, traced it back to Tvedten, and complained to the state. The state determined the flooding was because of a couple of dams built by beavers and proceeded to fine the beavers $10,000 unless they take the dams down. Who would have thought a couple of beavers could cause so much trouble?
The Earth is called Telleus and/or Terra after both greek and roman gods.
