Eager Beaver Bozo

Bozo and Butch are enjoying a picnic in the woods when they meet a beaver and take him back to the circus. They convince the Boss to let them keep the beaver as a pet. The beaver eats everything that is made of wood, including the animals' cages, even during showtime. The beaver also gets into mischief by letting out all the animals from their cages. The Boss makes Bozo take the beaver away to put in back in the wild. A storm breaks lose and overflows a dam. The dam cracks, but the beaver saves the day by chopping down forest pine trees to flow down the dam, thus blocking the crack in it. Our beaver hero saves the dam and circus. He's snatched up again by Bozo and Butch. All is forgiven, and the beaver is allowed to stay.
