Beaver

Boisterous Beaver Facts!

1. Beavers are the second-largest living rodents after the capybaras.

 2. Beavers have iron teeth. Their teeth contain iron, which is why when they chew on trees, their teeth don’t break, while yours do. It’s also why they’re the colour that they are: a dark, rusty brown. As a rodent, beavers’ teeth never stop growing, so these need some pretty hard things to gnaw on to keep them in shape. This process also ensures that they stay sharp forever.

3. They communicate with their tails. The iconic beaver tail is more than just a swim aid and rudder. Beavers use them to draw attention to threats, slapping them against the water as a warning.
