In northern IL beavers are doing OK, as near as I can tell. I see them in office complex ponds, in addition to forest preserves and in rivers and streams. Yes

In northern IL beavers are doing OK, as near as I can tell. I see them in office complex ponds, in addition to forest preserves and in rivers and streams. Yes, ponds in the middle of office parks. This office park, in fact: 42.046093034875774, -88.0546786192792 I have been seeing them there for years (I believe there's at least 2 distinct animals that live in those ponds).
