That’s right — it’s time to play nature detectives! Did you solve last week’s Mystery Critter? Today’s Mystery Critter was selected by a 6 year old nature enthusiast in New York. Thanks for the help, my junior naturalist friend!
So, put on your thinking caps and let’s get to it. There’s a mystery to be solved!
CRITTER CLUES:
- I am brown;
- I can be found in most parts of North America;
- I live in forest habitats, along streams and lakes;
- Females produce one young per year; and
- I play a very important role for humans, although many might not know it.
So, what am I? Make your guess, and then click here for the answer.
Grab a pair of binoculars and go look for wildlife in your community. You might be very surprised at what you can find!
