https://www.opb.org/article/2024/06/19/oregon-beavers-new-state-protections-no-longer-predators/
"Oregon’s state animal has for years been classified as a 'predator' by the state fish and wildlife agency, and that’s meant that the North American Beaver has lived largely unprotected from private landowners who can kill them at will."
New rules will give beavers more protection.
