Are beavers and wood chucks the same?

Answer 1

Distantly, in that they're both mammals. However, biologists group them in different orders: beavers are Rodentia; otters are Carnivora. Otters are actually more closely related to weasels and badgers than they are to beavers.

Answer 2

Yes, however a wood chuck chucks wood while a rock chuck chucks wood. So if you are to take my advise id rather be hit by a piece of wood chuck by a wood chuck than a rock chucked by a rock chuck.

Answer 3

A wood chuck and a beaver are two different animals.

Answer 4

Only in the fact they are both rodents. Woodchucks are marmots, family Marmota, and beavers are in the family Castoridae.

Answer 5

No, raccoons are in an entirely different family than a beaver.

Answer 6

no

Answer 7

Maybe

Answer 8

No.
