Beavers help create homes for animals by building dams that make wetland habitats. If we took away the beavers, those homes would disappear and the different animals might have to leave. The dams also help keep the water clean and in balance. So without the beavers, the whole ecosystem could get messed up. MAKE THIS SOUND LIKE A 7TH GRADER
