Have
you seen a beaver? It is an interesting animal. It has a thick tail that looks like
a paddle. It is used as a rudder.
The beaver has big front teeth that never stop
growing. Beavers keep their teeth from getting too long by chewing and gnawing on trees.
Then, what do beavers eat?
Beavers
are found all over America, except in really hot and
really cold places. They are excellent swimmers. They
live in streams and lakes, where
there are many trees. Beavers are good at building dams. They build
dams to create a safe and
comfortable habitat for themselves.
Beavers have dark brown hair. They weigh about 10-30 kilograms and
are 60-90 centimeters long, excluding their tails.
Interestingly,
a really big beaver could weigh almost as much as a child! Beavers
are active at night. They mostly sleep during the day.
Then, what do beavers eat? They only eat plants. Beavers like to eat
a few different kinds of trees, including poplar, maple, and willow. Beavers
eat bark and small twigs, too.
Sometimes they store small logs underwater near their homes
to eat later. |
