Chomping beavers take down Canada town's internet

Beavers have been blamed after a town in the Canadian state of British Columbia lost their internet service for some 12 hours.

The provider Telus said that parts of the underground cabling, servicing Tumbler Ridge, had been found in the beavers' home.

Some 900 internet users and 60 TV customers were affected, it said.

Telus spokeswoman Liz Sauvé described it as a "very unusual and uniquely Canadian turn of events".

The service went down at around 04:00 local time on Saturday.

Telus said when crews went to a nearby dam they found beavers had "chewed through our fibre cable at multiple points, causing extensive damage".
