Mike Digout, widely known as Saskatoon's 'Beaver Guy,' has gained significant attention by showcasing the urban beavers that inhabit the South Saskatchewan River. These beavers have become a viral sensation and are now the subject of a guided walking tour, drawing locals and tourists alike.
The Rise of the Urban Beavers
The beavers, which have adapted to city life, have captured the hearts of many through Digout's social media posts. His videos and photos highlight their daily activities, building dams and swimming along the riverbank. The growing interest led to the creation of a walking tour that educates participants about beaver behavior and urban wildlife coexistence.
