Cutest Beaver Pics The Internet Has To Offer

Did you know baby beavers stay with their families for two or more years? If you ever see multiple beavers in a pond they are probably all related! 

This wee baby beaver was found all alone on a golf course near Calgary, Canada by the rescuers at the Alberta Institute for Wildlife Conservation. The orphaned beaver was far away from water and had his tail injured, which suggests that he might have been dropped by a predator.

Our hospital team examined the beaver and found it to be healthy. That evening, a volunteer returned to the area and located a beaver lodge. The next day, the volunteer was able to successfully reunite the beaver kit with its family. One of the most important things you can do if you find a baby animal is to make sure it is truly abandoned or orphaned by waiting and observing to see if a parent returns.

Last week we introduced you to Buttons, a sweet orphaned baby beaver at Farasyn Farms Wildlife Rescue in Oregon.

He was suffering from some wounds and an injury to his left eye. He is currently receiving treatment for an eye ulcer, but otherwise is doing well and growing like a weed!

They were simply adorable! The high water from all the rain allowed me to explore new territory that was previously inaccessible.
