41. Beavers living amongst us.
"... we have a small brook at the back of our property and another, even smaller one, on the side. Maybe ten years or so ago, in the aftermath of a hurricane (all we get is the rain) our brooks were pretty swollen. The next day, there were two beaver in it!

They're way bigger than I thought they'd be.

They didn't stick around. They left with the dropping water level.


Beavers have lived in the USA longer than most of us have been alive. They make their homes in beaver dams in running water - streams, creeks and rivers.
