A cousin of mice, rats and squirrels, the beaver is amazingly well-adapted to life in the water, and remarkably capable of modifying its environment to promote its own survival. This engineering ability ultimately can result in creating habitat for other species and challenges for humans.

Join Jennings staff to learn more about an animal that has made its presence known again at the park after a period of absence. Following a brief, indoor introduction, we’ll venture outdoors to search for signs of recent beaver activity, and perhaps even catch a glimpse of one of these industrious creatures.
