A full moon is approaching. It’s beautiful. The moon is not very round tonight, but we will see the full moon on the last night in this month. Its traditional name (in America) is Beaver Moon. But beavers were hunted to extinction (for their fur) in England four hundred years ago. Here's a beaver hat. However, there are now beavers in Cornwall. Cornwall Wildlife Trust introduced beavers to a farm near Ladock. They can prevent rivers flooding and they have other benefits for land management. There are more on Bodmin Moor. What kind of animal is a beaver? It’s a rodent, like a mouse - but very big, and with a broad tail. It has big teeth that can nibble tree bark and wood. A beaver is a huge nibbling animal. They can fell trees.
