Animals in 3D from Colorado

Colorado

Colorado's natural beauty is enjoyed by all who visit the state.  With over 10 national parks, monuments and historic trails, a variety of recreational actives can be found throughout the mountainous region.  Canyons, mountains, sand dunes, and wildlife grace the landscapes of Colorado creating majestic scenes of rustic beauty.

This postcard was made by Howard Robinson in 2014.

I think most of the animals on this 3-D postcard are a: cougar, otter, sheep, chipmunk, beaver, elk, moose, eagle, deer, bear and a marmot.

North American Beaver

North American Wildlife
Beaver (Castor canadensis).
A beaver that lives along the river will make an underwater entrance into the riverbank.  Those that live along streams, lakes, and ponds will build dams that incorporated a lodge with living quarters and several underwater entrances.  It has webbed hind feet and a broad flat tail that serves as a rudder when swimming.  It fells trees by gnawing around them and biting out chips in deep grooves.
