This extremely vigilant animal can scare you to death, especially if you approach its habitat at night – then it may decide to dive into the water hitting the surface with its powerful tail. This is a warning sign against an intruder for the other members of the flock! One of many signals of a very complex communication system. A beaver is definately a family type. Monogamous. Caring for the family.
If you happen to observe beavers build lodges during the day, you may believe yourself to be very lucky! By nature, beavers are in fact nocturnal animals. They are extremely skittish and can stay under water for a very long time. Dive masters!
