I know about the gaze* of raccoons by Marovitz but not beavers
*had to Google for the collective word
I donβt remember seeing Robertβs story but they seem to protect the beavers at the Nature BW, have even put up fencing at one time (blocking human pedestrian access lol) to give them free passage to a wooded area
