Description: Tells about both the American (Castor canadensis) and European (Castor fiber) species. Includes many photos, including photos of the skeletons.
Beavers make up a very small family (2 modern species in one genus, ), but its members are conspicuous members of forest communities in the north temperate zone, and their ecological impact is considerable. They also played a pivotal role in the European exploration and settling of many parts of North America. Modern beavers are found in North America, northern Europe, and northern Asia.
