Discover the fascinating world of beavers â natureâs greatest builders. Learn how they create dams, survive in the wild, and shape ecosystems.
Beavers are large semi-aquatic rodents known for their impressive ability to build dams and lodges. They live near rivers, lakes, and wetlands, creating habitats that benefit many other animals.
Beavers use branches, mud, and stones to build dams that raise water levels and protect their homes.
