The rate of beaver attacks is on the rise, as more developments intrude on their territory. The more neighborhoods we build on land that is inhabited by beavers and other wildlife, the more likely it is you’ll have a negative interaction with them.

It’s easy to think these creatures are more of a nuisance than anything, but the truth is that they were present before us. We need to respect their territory instead of provoking them. This is the best way to avoid a beaver attack. They are generally not aggressive creatures, but every animal has its breaking point.
