Giant Beavers the Size of Black Bears? This Blew My Mind

Did you know that giant beavers once roamed North America—and they were the size of black bears?! 🤯 In this conversation, I sit down with Kelly Lubbers to dive into the wild history of Castoroides, the prehistoric beaver that once lived in ancient wetlands.

We break down their massive size, how climate shaped their evolution, and whether seasonality played a role in their survival. Plus, I can’t help but wonder—why didn’t beavers ever just bite a turtle?

Join me as we explore the fascinating world of prehistoric wildlife, climate change, and evolutionary adaptations. Don’t forget to subscribe for more science and history deep dives!
