Beaver fun facts and Tulip Q&A

THANK YOU Neil for the incredible donation!
Today’s video goes over some fun beaver biology and some Q&A about Tulip.
The one question I have gotten that I didn’t answer in the video is do beavers have a smell. In general the answer is no. Beavers don’t have a smell. It’s in their best interest for avoiding predators to not put off a smell. However they do scent mark territory and that substance is potent and smelly. Scent marking takes place just outside of the water on a small mound they create from mud. It tells other beavers who lives there but does a predator no good.
The other question I’ve gotten is regarding where do they go to the bathroom? Beavers usually pass waste in the water. This works well as it disperses without attracting a predator and it’s a great fertilizer for wetlands.
