Meet Nibi, a wild beaver at Newhouse Wildlife Rescue in Chelmsford, Massachusetts. This month, she got a new roommate, another beaver named Ziibi, and grew comfortable enough with each other that they stopped fighting, according to their carers.

But when Ziibi was brought out of the room for some time in the water and Nibi got some alone time, she jumped into action.

"Nibi immediately started building a dam at the door where her roommate exited…you know…in case Ziibi tries to come back inside…," the wildlife rescue said in a Facebook post, sharing video of Nibi stacking tree branches in the door.

She even seems to jump for joy as she scampers back for more branches.

The video went viral — two days after posting it on Facebook, it had over 3 million views, the wildlife rescue said.

Newhouse cares for injured and orphaned wildlife in Massachusetts' Merrimack Valley.

"It is our goal to share the stories of the animals we have cared for to, not only raise awareness, but to inspire kindness in others," the organization writes on its website.
