The Beaver's Waterproof
- Coat.
We do not wonder much at the fact
that fish can stand it to be wet all the
time; they are strictly aquatic crea-
tures. But how about .those animals
that aro organized for a dry -land exist-
ence, yet spend a large part of their
time in water? How do the polar bear,
the mink, muskrat, otter and beaver
manage to keep the Internal Organism
dry and warm enough to prevent fatal
chilling?
Nalure takes care of these problems
in various ways. Perhaps the most
interesting thing of its kind—positive-
ly astonishing, if you have had no
knowledge of Yt—is the water -proofing
methods of beavers. Everyone is more
or less familiar with the "houses” and
dam -building activities of the beaver,
and we know be is in the water a
great deal indeed. The reason he does
not suffer is found In the nature of his
coat and his method of oiling it, Ills
fur Is of two kinds -long, coarse, red-
dish -brown hair outside and under-
neath, an inner fur of soft gray,
The inner fur provides warmth, and
is kop t dry by.application of oil to -
the outer tor, Let me tell you, 1n the
words of Raymond Thompson, how
this oiling is done. The front feet of
the beaver are much like human hands
having long slender Rogers. The nails
are long and slightly curved, to aid
the animal in digging and In handling
the trees, mud sad stones which he
uses iq his work, The hind feet, on
the other hand, are very large and
strong and aro fully webbed for swim-
ming. The nails on the hind toes are
rather short and stubby, in compari-
son to those of the fore feet, as they
are not used for any especial purpose.
The beaver's hind foot has five. toes.
On the next to the outside toe the nail
is split or divided and at the first con-
sideration one would naturally sup.
pose this to be a freak. However, this
split toe -nail really explains the ani-
mal's waterproofing process.. Connect-
ing with this opening at the toenail
are tiny ducts which lead from the oil
sacs. In waterproofing his coat the
beaver simply combs his fur with lila
hind feet, this action causing the oil
to flow from rho saes to the opening
at the' split nail. Mr. Thompson says
that when he wee first told this, by an
old woodsman, he regarded it as a
joke, lint afterward he took every op•
portunity to watch, and, liks others,
found the statement to Be abaoiutely
true, ----L, 15. Eubank.
