Along with the Canadian horse, the beaver is one of Canada's two national animals. While the beaver became an official symbol of Canada in 1975, its use as a symbol of this land goes back to the country's earliest roots. In fact, a beaver appears on the first coat of arms associated with the land now known as Canada, dating back to the early 1620s.
