Beavers: The Giant Prehistoric Architects
Today, we recognize beavers as industrious creatures known for building intricate dams and lodges, but their ancestors had a truly colossal presence. Prehistoric beavers, which lived millions of years ago, were astonishingly large, rivaling the size of modern-day bears.
These ancient beavers, such as the Castoroides, could grow up to 8 feet (2.4 meters) in length and weigh over 220 pounds (100 kilograms). Their size allowed them to create enormous, robust dams that could significantly alter the landscape.
The dramatic change in size between prehistoric and contemporary beavers is a testament to the ever-evolving nature of life on Earth. Today’s beavers may not reach the gigantic proportions of their ancestors, but their remarkable building skills continue to shape ecosystems in their own unique way.
