To celebrate International Beaver Day, here are seven facts about these iconic and industrious rodents:

1. Beavers can stay underwater for 15 minutes without coming up for air.
2. The beaver is Canada’s biggest rodent and the second-largest on the planet.
3. Beavers’ transparent eyelids work like goggles, by protecting their eyeballs as they swim underwater.
4. The beaver has been Canada’s national symbol for more than 300 years.
5. Beavers’ ear openings and nostrils have valves that can be closed when underwater.
6. The world’s largest beaver dam is 850 meters long and located in Wood Buffalo National Park.
7. Beavers sharpen their incisors (teeth) by grinding them against one another.
