Sandra inspired this post when she told us that Beavers have orange teeth! This link has a great photo to prove it. Who knew?
'This is because, whereas other rodents have magnesium in their tooth enamel, beavers have iron. So beavers have orange teeth for the same reason we have red blood.
The iron causes the orange colouring in beavers’ teeth, makes the teeth stronger against mechanical stress, and makes them more resistant to acid.'
And here we are at the end of July!

No lo sabía te mando un beso.
I knew because I read it on your blog earlier. Or maybe it was Sandra Cox's blog. Regardless, it was not new news to me.
I didn't know that!
Thanks for sharing

I'll have to store that in my trivia file.
This is so interesting. Thanks for sharing!
That's fascinating and this came at the right time. Only yesterday I was taking photos of a pair at our local pond. Thanks Christine!
beavers are cool animals :) there are some in the wild here again (after years!) that escaped from where they were being kept and have done wonderfully with building damns and breeding
