Beavers and Humans
Woodlands with streams are a beaver's habitat.Humans use woodlands, too.Some of these humans dislike beavers.They think beavers are pests that build dams in streams.Sometimes the dams cause floods and hurt the land.
Other humans think beavers are good for the land.When beavers build a dam,they make a wetland home where other plants and animals can live.This is good for the planet.
Humans can make problems for beavers.When people's trash gets in streams,beavers may put it in the dams they build.
This trash can be a danger to beavers.They can get hurt by rusty nails.They can choke on plastic bags.This is why humans must keep streams and lakes clean.
