Know Your Local Fauna Series - Cache names are common animals in the piedmont that we have encountered while caching.
The North American Beaver is the only species of beaver in the Americas, native to North America and introduced to South America. In the United States and Canada, where no other species of beaver occurs, it is usually simply referred to as "beaver". Its other vernacular names, including American beaver and Canadian beaver, distinguish this species from the one other extant beaver (Castor fiber), native to Eurasia.
The beaver is the largest rodent in North America and the third largest rodent in the world, after the South American capybara and the Eurasian beaver. Adults usually weigh 33 to 77 lb, with 44 lb a typical mass, and measure around 3.3 ft in total body length. Very old individuals can weigh as much as 99 lb.
