A Russian road in the Urals break up because dam - building opera hat blocked a pipe run under the road . The pressing of water trying to get through the blocked pipe created a 13 metrical unit endocarp in the heart of the fussy road .
Biologist Pavel Kosintsev blames young beaver and the decline of silk hat hunt :
youthful someone build dams and settle in new places . There ’s only one way to protect communications from these animals – put iron streak over the pipes .
Beaver fur used to be very sought after , and the animal were regularly hunted . A few years ago there was a sharp drop in the price of beaver pelts and the hunter ’s interest in the fauna stopped .
