Answer: Beavers build dams to protect themselves from predators, such as bears or wolves Beavers don’t actually live in the dams, but in the deep pond of water that dams create In this pool, beavers construct their real home: a small protective island or dome ‘lodge’ that serves as a dry living area and food store
