	“Often constructed outside of developed areas, the earthen dam [[environment]] is usually near a water source and can contain a variety of vegetation; given these characteristics, earthen dam environments can be naturally conducive to use by wildlife. Wildlife inhabiting the dam can alter the dam environment through habitat establishment and use – beaver build dams, muskrat excavate dens, livestock feed on stabilizing vegetation.
