Creature Comforts | Beavers

On Creature Comforts, Kevin Farrell is joined by Dr. Troy Majure, veterinarian at the Animal Medical Center in Jackson and Libby Hartfield retired director of the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science.If you look closely enough, you’ll notice that many of our critter friends are astonishingly good construction workers. From the inner workings of a beehive to the underground networks of moles, there are many talented architects in the wild, and one such animal is the beaver. Today, we’re joined by Holley Muraco from the MSU Coastal Research and Extension Center to discuss beavers, dams, and her research on the subject. To submit your own question for the show, email us at [email protected] or send us a message with the Talk To Us feature in the MPB Public Media App.If you enjoyed listening to this podcast, please consider contributing to MPB: https://donate.mpbfoundation.org/mspb/podcast Hosted on Acast.
