Like the maple leaf, the beaver is a symbol of Canada's unity. Maple trees grow in all ten provinces and three territories. Beavers live in all ten provinces and three territories.

Furthermore, the beaver is a symbol of industiousness. It is always busy building dams and tending to them.

The beaver is also an important Canadian historical icon. Beaver pelts were an important trade item and the source of wealth in the early days of what is now Canada.

Are beavers endangered in Canada?

The animal that became Canada's symbol was trapped to near extinction for its pelt and only concerted efforts by early conservationists, namely Parks Canada's first naturalist/interpreter Grey Owl (Archibald Belaney), saved it. So it was near extinction but was saved and is no longer in the endangered list. In Europe, the European beavers are classified as endangered.
