Long teeth gnaw ... Flat tail slaps ... Meet the beaver Brimming with vivid photos and scientific facts, this middle-grade nonfiction book treats researchers and wild animal lovers to a comprehensive profile of these industrious mammals. It covers zoology topics such as anatomy, diet, habitat, and life cycle, as well as species conservation efforts and the water-loving rodents' relationship with humans throughout history. Sidebars, a range map, and a glossary support the main text, while a beaver legend from the indigenous Tsimshian people of the Pacific Northwest adds a cross-curricular cultural layer to the title.
