One of CanadaB次元官网网址檚 most recognizable symbols rescued one of CanadaB次元官网网址檚 other most recognizable symbols in Langford early Tuesday (Sept. 5) morning.
West Shore RCMP officers responded to a report of a beaver in the street at Millstream Road near Bear Mountain Parkway just before 6:15 a.m. after concerned passers-by noticed the animal was alive, but would not move for cars and appeared to be injured.
Officers found the adolescent female beaver and noticed it seemed to be distressed, shaking and unable to walk.
A consult with the Animal Control Emergency Line and BC SPCA Wild Animal Rehabilitation Centre informed officers the beaver was certainly in need of medical care, but no experts were available to come to the rescue as it was too early in the morning.
The officers decided they would take the beaver to Wild ARC themselves rather than wait, and while she was quite upset about being placed in the back of a police cruiser, the latest update from the rehabilitation centre is she is expected to make a full recovery.
