I recall this was done purposefully in… Wisconson? to help rejuvinate a failing creek bed. The engineers installed pseudo-beaver dams that would only last a season or two so beavers would see these and be all like “What the fuck is this shit?” and fix them up and start living there.
Unfortunately there are parts of Wisconsin where the beavers are met with metal traps around their den. You gotta protect that class I trout stream from nature, I guess
