Dead American Beaver

On Tuesday, 10 November 2015 on the way back from school my dad and I found a dead American Beaver Castor canadensis which was presumably hit by the car and wandered to the side of the road to die from natural reasons. He was found at 47°10'40.5"N 122°32'11.4"W.

Unfortunately, he did not make it and signs of his dam by Lake Steilacoom in Lakewood Washington were visible. I hope no other beavers are harmed in this way.
