Fat beaver Eleanor

It is reported that this fat beaver Eleanor was rescued after a traffic accident. It was unfortunately hit by a car. Therefore, it was quickly taken to Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary in Hobart for rescue, and after examination, it was found that because of its huge size, that is, it was too fat, so it escaped from the car accident, and was not seriously injured, just a minor injury.

Animal care center staff said it was the largest beaver they had ever seen, and they shared its cute photos on Facebook on January 29. In the photo, Eleanor was lying lazily and bloated after taking sedative, completely unconcerned about its fat belly.

Internet users saw this photo and said it was the fattest beaver they had ever seen.

Due to the fact that the beaver likes to eat all kinds of ants, netizens couldn't help but ask how much sweet ants it had eaten to make itself so fat. Some netizens said that Eleanor should lose weight and should stop eating 'sweet food' for now.

Many people thanked the car owner who hit Eleanor for not fleeing the scene, but instead took Eleanor to seek rescue. Someone joked that the car that hit Eleanor is probably 'injured' now and needs repair.

Internet users were very happy that this cute beaver was okay, and netizens wished the lucky beaver a speedy recovery.

Some netizens claimed to have seen a fatter beaver after seeing this picture, and shared a video of a marsupial they took in their backyard.
