ID 315568225 © Lehmanphotos | Megapixl.com
A beaver mound rises from the shallows of a lake surrounded by marsh grasses with snow-covered mountains in the background. This beaver mound is located in Upper Klamath Lake, southern Oregon. To mark their territories they surround their ponds with scent mounds. Scent mounds are piles of mud with the adult's castor oil mixed in. They act as warnings to any beaver that may be passing through the area. Adult beavers will defend their territory by attacking any beaver outside its family who enters it.
