Books on Beaver
The Beaver: Its Life and Impact. By Dietland Muller-Schwarze
'The Beaver: Its Life and Impact is designed to satisfy the
curiosity and answer the questions of anyone with an interest in these
animals, from students who enjoy watching beaver ponds at nature centers
to homeowners and land managers. Color and black-and-white photographs
document every aspect of beaver behavior and biology, the variety of
their constructions, and the habitats that depend on their presence.' -
Cornell University Press- Hood GA. 2011. The Beaver Manifesto. Rocky Mountain Books: Toranto, Canada, 130 pp. - An excellent new book targeted at lay audiences that lays out much of the rationale for partnering with beaver in conservation and restoration efforts.
- Enos Mills' (1913) 'In Beaver World' is a classic filled with great anecdotal accounts of beaver. You can download a PDF for free form archive.org.
