CALUMET - A beaver cut through a fiber optic cable 2 miles south of Calumet, causing 911 service outage today in northern Houghton County and all of Keweenaw County, along with additional problems for AT&T landline customers in the 337 and 289 prefix telephone exchanges.

The University of Maine in Farmington's mascot is the beaver - The college is predominantly female, but I don't think one of them did it.
