A wildlife observation camera that disappeared from a wildlife feeding station in Scotland has been found in a beaver house in a nearby stream.
According to the British BBC, on the 8th (local time), the ‘Argaty Red Kites’ located in the Wildlife Sanctuary in Central Scotland posted on social media, “Danger! The thief beavers ran away!” and posted a photo and related content.
After work Monday, employees wondered why the beaver-watching web camera had been filming nothing but mud and sticks over the weekend. It turned out that beavers living nearby took off the camera and the pedestal and used it as the roof of their house. About 12 beavers lived in the area.
An official from the distribution center said, “It seems that the beavers knocked down the wooden pole that was supporting the camera.” The observation camera was later restored, but the supply station decided to replace the wooden pole with a metal one.
On the 8th (local time), beavers living in a wildlife sanctuary in central Scotland brought cameras and wooden supports to observe them and used them as materials to build their homes. Capture from Twitter (@sysatyredkites) at Argati Red Kite Feeding CenterNetizens commented, “The tree that supported the camera was so coveted,” “Maybe they stole it to strengthen their house security,” and “Nice job, Bieber!” etc., showed humor and reaction.
The beaver is a globally endangered species and is known to have lived mainly near rivers and swamps in Scotland before the 16th century. They are also called ‘Sea Cats’ because they build their houses with sticks and mud. It mainly builds dams by cutting down trees close to rivers with its front teeth. In the center, they build a nest with wood, stone, or soil.
