		Beavers are best known for their natural trait of building dams in rivers, and building lodges in the eventual artificial pond.
		The dams are created both as a protection against predators (bear is the only natural predator) and to provide easy access to food during winter.
		Their houses are formed of the same materials as the dams, with little order or regularity of structure, and seldom contain more than four old, and six or eight young beavers.
