Beavers Expand Into Canada's Arctic Amid Warming Climate

Canada's national symbol is colonizing new territory in the Arctic. The expansion is being driven by a warming climate in the region. Beavers are moving further north into habitats they previously did not occupy. These animals are evading Inuit hunters as they spread across the landscape. The presence of the rodents is actively reshaping the environment they find. Ecosystems in the Arctic are changing as a result of this new colonization. Local wildlife and traditional lands are experiencing noticeable alterations. Observers continue to monitor the northward movement of the animals.
