Beavers, Canada, and the Busy Engineer of Dams
The beaver, a symbol of industry and a once endangered species, resurges across Canada as populations rebound from early bans. In Manitoba’s Tramping Lake area biologists trap and tag beavers while landowners contend with flooded fields from dam building, highlighting conservation battles and new abundance. Local Outdoor Writers of Canada note book titles on wilderness survival and fishing guides from Sports Famille and Scribner’s, reflecting ongoing outdoor interests and resource use.
