I'm sorry, I am going to answer this properly, but do yourself a favor and, oh, well, nevermind. When I tried to research a dress I bought by someone named Kate Beaver, you wouldn't believe the irritating responses I read. Beavers are large North American or Eurasian rodents. Their claim to fame as an animal species is their cleverness in using their teeth, along with their brains, in the building of their fantastic fortresslike homes. Beavers grow throughout their lives. It is not uncommon to find them maxing out at over fifty pounds. Females are at least the same size as the males, if not larger, something uncommon in mammals. There was once a prehistoric North American Giant Beaver. I will only touch lightly upon this subject to note it was the size of a small bear. It disappeared during the Holocene Extinction, about thirteen thousand years ago, give or take a week. Chew on that.

How high can a beaver jump?

When answering this question, it's important to differentiate between the North American Beaver and the Eurasian beaver. The North American beaver plays above the rim, and has a vertical leap that's been measured as high as forty-two inches (1.07m). The Eurasian beaver doesn't jump quite as high, but has a very crafty perimeter game.

How long have beaver been endangered?

Beavers are not endangered. The American beaver is currently listed as "least concern", and the Eurasian beaver is listed as "threatened". It is worth noting, however, that the American beaver population (like most animals) was significantly reduced over the last century. Specifically it was reduced by about 80%, from ~60 million beavers to currently ~12 million beavers.
