Odorant Source Used in Eurasian Beaver Territory Marking
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2001 Mammals use urine, feces, or the secretion of specialized skin glands to mark their territories. These sources can carry different information and, thus, have different functions. Presently it is not known if beavers (Castor spp.) deposit castoreum (primarily a mixture of secondary metabolites from urine) from the castor sacs and secretion from the ...

Mitochondrial phylogeography of the Eurasian beaverCastor fiberL. [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2005 AbstractNucleotide variation in an approximately 490 bp fragment of the mitochondrial DNA control region (mtDNA CR) was used to describe the genetic variation and phylogeographical pattern in the Eurasian beaver (Castor fiber) over its entire range. The sampling effort was focused on the relict populations that survived a drastic population bottleneck,

Seasonal variations of the digestive tract of the Eurasian beaver Castor fiber [PDF]
Mammal Research, 2017 Forage availability for wild rodents varies with season. In turn, the composition of food can affect morphometric parameters of the digestive tract. This study was performed in Eurasian beavers (Castor fiber) whose population was close to extinction in most Eurasian countries, but has now increased.
