Beaver (Castor canadensis)
Beavers are amazing architects. They are able to construct large dams as well as tend to their lodges on a daily basis. Beavers are always working and you will notice the evidence they leave on felled trees. The beaver is much larger than a muskrat and has a large black flat tail. A great swimmer and family oriented the beavers will stay together in one lodge.
