LBL Wildlife Report: The Many Busy Beavers of Land Between the Lakes

8:05
Tracy Ross and Woodlands Nature Station naturalist John Pollpeter discuss the beavers of Land Between the Lakes.
Beavers are the second-largest rodent in the world; the first largest is the South American capybara. "Beavers can get up to 60 pounds in this area," Pollpeter begins. "I've heard some records as large as 90 pounds. That's a big animal out here in Land Between the Lakes. It's easy to see. They're conspicuous."
"A lot of times, you'll see them swimming across the lake--maybe just their nose. The tell-tale sign that there's a beaver around is if you get too close, they will slap that flat tail of theirs. They're a very family-oriented animal; that [tail flap] is a warning to the rest of the family that there's danger nearby."
