Wisdom – carried by the Beaver

The Creator gave the Beaver the gift of his teeth. When the Beaver uses his teeth he can divert water to a burned out place and create a beautiful place once again. If he should stop using his teeth they will grow until he is unable to eat and will die. 

Like the Beaver, the Creator gave us all unique gifts to learn and develop for the betterment of the people, and it is said that when we don’t know our gifts or don’t use them, we become dead inside and feel as though we have no purpose. And if we all use our gifts as the Beaver does, we can create a beautiful world. We feed the Beaver turnip, carrots and any other fruit or vegetable that is hard. The beaver carries the medicine Grey Willow.
