Pittsburgh Zoo - Beavers

July 2008.
The one on the left is the adult, and the one on the right is the rather large baby. I watched what I assume was the mother beaver swim after her youngsters as they left the land area of the exhibit. She would grab them with her teeth, transport them back to the desired zone, and then they would disobey her and take off once again! This pattern repeated itself a number of times during my visit.
 
I saw a video online that showed the mother following the babies around trying to get them, but the babies were much smaller in the video.
