As I look outside, it's pouring. No doubt creek levels will be on the rise. Not just from rain, but snow melt too. Do hi water levels have quite an impact on beaver behavior & movement?

They tend to be more responsive to castor during high water periods. Trick is locating them if the dens/lodges are flooded out as they start looking for calmer water and dry places to hang out till the water goes down.

High water flushes out the travelers. High water is good. Or should I say low water sucks for rodents in spring dispersal
