A clip of an adorable baby beaver running around made the rounds on social media on Tuesday morning.
But the video also served as a reminder not to separate animals from their natural habitats.
"Another baby beaver was bought into the facility at #OperationOrphanWildlifeRehabilitatioinc," author Sherry Carnahan wrote on Instagram. "This baby beaver, [approximately] 4 weeks old, was found but should have been left alone. The mom was not far away. Please don’t be too hasty to assume a baby is an orphan. Mother is often close by and out of [sight] watching her babies or off looking for food. #notallbabiesareorphan."
You can see the video in the Instagram player below.
