To gnaw down a tree, beaver sit on their butt, hold the tree with their hands, and turn their head to the side to chew. This 3.5 foot stump on Camp Creek in the Wyoming Range suggests a very large beaver at work. Fresh chips and green leaves on the tree offer proof the tree was not chewed during winter. This had to be a big beaver to reach this high! |
