Beaver numbers per pond
I'm doing some damage control this spring. Most of the ponds I'm on were trapped hard last spring/summer already. I was told they were cleaned right out. They are not large ponds and they only have 1 house/den.
I'm curious about the #'s of beavers in these ponds in the spring.
I'm finding I'm getting 2 adults m/f and nothing else out of these situations..
On one pond, I got 1 very large adult and nothing since. Castor mound sets with fresh castor from different beavers every 3-4 days. I'm wondering if it's just one adult in there? It was a female.
If the male/female just hooked up and moved into the pond last spring/summer, am I correct in assuming they likely did not have a litter?
