Beavers are remarkable animals. They have teeth that self-sharpen and never stop growing, and a heart that slows down and valves that close in their ears and nose when they dive. Their tale is the most multi-purpose of any animal on this planet – in addition to communication its many functions include serving as an air conditioner in summer and a food pantry in winter. A myriad of other creatures benefit from the actions of beavers including moose with their diet of aquatic plants and swallows nesting in drowned trees. All these creatures benefit from the habitats created by the beaver.
This book is a comprehensive overview of the lives of beavers and the habitats that arise from their actions. It is a visual extravaganza with approximately 400 photographs providing intimate insights into the lives of beavers and the other inhabitants of their ponds. And many new observations and rarely seen moments will be revealed as well.
