I'm wondering if anyone knows if when nursing is done that mammary glands and nipples retreat fully to non-breeding appearance of not being visible but still palpable through the fur.

Where there are overlapping colonies there can be more than one sow beaver in same area. Save her sac oil to use after the catch there slows/stops...you'll be glad you did.
