In our day New Mexico beavers live along permanent streams mainly in the mountainous regions of the state. In the early 1900s at Black Rock on the Zuni Pueblo reservation, a small grouping of Pleistocene mammal fossils were found during construction of an irrigation dam on the Zuni River. Creatures like beaver, mastodon, camel and woodland muskox were there indicating the presence of both permanent water and forests in the region. The ancestral Zuni River was probably a pretty large permanent stream in ancient times supporting a diverse riparian forest. Melvin Sandoval has smoothed the way for an angelite Beaver to emerge from the water to sunbathe. About 2 3/8" long, 2" wide and 1 1/4" tall.
