*** About Beavers: Beavers, known scientifically as Castor canadensis, are integral to Canada's wildlife and have a significant impact on its ecosystem. These industrious animals are celebrated for their dam-building skills, which create wetlands—crucial habitats for a myriad of other species including fish, birds, and amphibians. In Canadian culture, the beaver is revered not only for its ecological role but also as a symbol of persistence and hard work. Historically, beavers were central to the fur trade, a key element of Canada’s early economy, which profoundly shaped the nation's history. Despite past over-hunting, conservation efforts have now stabilized beaver populations, allowing them to thrive once more across the nation’s waterways.
