Dams are often perfect structures for animal habitats. Holes, crevices, burrows, deeper water and diminished currents all contribute to suitable homes for rodents and snakes as well as fish, alligators and crocodiles, beavers, and many other animals commonly found near waterways. These animals are dangers to both people and dam structures. If you are swimming, boating, or recreating in the area of a dam, be aware of the potential for aggressive or territorial animals. | |||
