Their adaptations help them complete their jobs most effectively. On land\, a beaver’s movements are extremely awkward\, making them vulnerable to predators. In water\, however\, beavers can swim up to 6 mph and they stay underwater for up to 15 minutes\, all which help beavers evade terrestrial predators. A naturalist will bring props to showcase this fascinating animal.
