Title: Free-ranging Eurasian beavers, Castor fiber, deposit anal gland secretion when scent marking / Frank Rosell, Frode Bergan.
Author(s): Rosell, Frank.
Bergan, Frode.
Date: 1998.
In: Canadian Field-Naturalist. (1998.), Vol. 112(3) (1998)
Abstract: Two adult beaver were seen depositing anal gland secretion at border of territory by everting cloaca, protruding anal gland openings and rubbing them against surface as animal walked over scent mound.
