A couple whose garden was being vandalised in the night were shocked when they discovered the culprit was Wales' first wild beaver for 400 years.
The dam-building rodent was discovered when they noticed trees going missing and machete-like damage in a field next to their house.
Curious about the cause of the damage, the homeowners in Pembrokeshire, Wales, bought a stealth camera and captured footage of the creature swimming in their pond and felling their trees.
