Beaver: History
The beaver is a common and widely distributed mammal which has attracted the interest of many people, even if they have never seen one. They are mostly known for cutting down numerous trees and shrubs for building and maintaining their dams and lodges, as well as for their own food during the summer and storing an additional amount to eat during winter.

Hunters, media and anyone interested in deer harvest data can find current deer harvest figures and harvest reports for past years on the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources’ deer reports and statistics webpage (mndnr. gov/mammals/deer/management/ statistics.html). The page also features an interactive map and graph that visualizes the data.

The News-Herald shares these stories as a reminder to all to be safe and to follow the rules!
