The North Carolina Mountain Fair is going on right now and besides the games, the rides and the food if you get the chance check out the North Carolina Wildlife exhibit. This year the featured subject is the American Beaver;
With its broad, flat tail and large, sharp incisors, the American beaver is second only to humans in its ability to modify a landscape. For this reason, the beaver has been both friend and foe to humans for centuries.
Learn more about North America’ largest rodent when you visit the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission’s exhibit at the Mountain State Fair in Fletcher, Sept. 7-16.
I don’t believe I’ll get the chance to check out this exhibit but hopefully they’ll have it for the State Fair here in Raleigh in October.
