Beavers are the engineers of the rodent world. They fell trees by gnawing through their trunks, then use the branches to dam stream. The dams create a pond, in the middle of which the beaver family constructs an island made of more branches. The island, or beaver lodge, is a perfect home where the beavers are safe from predators.
Little facts.. Beavers jaws are so powerful they can cut a half-inch sapling in one bite. Cattails and water tubers are favorite foods.. they do not eat fish or other animals. Make sure you continue on down the trail to see all of their hard work. It's more about the location.. not the cache itself.
