Beaver Design: Beavers represent persistence, determination and steadfast dedication towards achieving their goals. Beavers are architects and use their skills of building to create a home, a life, a family or a career. They will persist until their work is done. They are proficient and comfortable in multiple domains, being both a semi-aquatic animal of the water and land. They are very social animals and live in large extended families. Beavers are loyal and loving. They symbolize of romance and partnership, and mate for life. In Haida art, beavers are visually represented by their two front teeth and their unique oval-shaped tail.
