, 2017 The American beaver (Castor canadensis) is known as an “ecosystem engineer” because of the benefits their dams provide to biological diversity and ecosystem function. It also is considered a “keystone species” because of its ability to transform its environment, creating new habitats upon which other species depend.

Frontiers in Conservation Science, 2022 Wildlife translocations alter animal movement behavior, so identifying common movement patterns post-translocation will help set expectations about animal behavior in subsequent efforts. American and Eurasian beavers (Castor canadensis; Castor fiber) are

Ethological notes on the relationships between beavers and some mammal and bird species
Theriologia Ukrainica, 2019 Cases of mutual relations of beavers with 16 species of mammals and 8 species of birds are described and analysed. Beavers have different contacts with lots of species of animals around the water complex, which can be often regular in different situation.

Legacy effects of loss of beavers in the continental United States
Environmental Research Letters, 2021 Through their modifications of channels and floodplains, beavers are a premier example of ecosystem engineers. Historical and stratigraphic records suggest that hundreds of millions of beavers once modified small to medium rivers throughout the northern ...
