This free printable beaver coloring page shows a busy cartoon beaver with a big flat tail carrying a stick toward its log dam, with a cozy lodge, cattails, a tall pine tree and a fish jumping in the river. It is a great way to learn about one of nature’s best builders. Like all our printables, it is completely free for home and classroom use.
Fun fact to share while coloring: beavers are the second-largest rodents in the world after capybaras, and their orange front teeth never stop growing.
Printing Tips
- The file is a print-ready 2550×3300 px (8.5×11 in at 300 DPI) page. Choose US Letter, or A4 with “Fit to page” turned on.
- Print in black and white or grayscale to save ink. The bold outlines stay crisp on any home printer.
- Use thicker paper (cardstock, 65 lb or 160 gsm) for markers or paint so colors don’t bleed through.
- Want a smaller sheet for little hands? Print at 50% to fit two pages on one sheet.
- Free for personal, family and classroom use. Please don’t resell or re-upload the file.
Coloring Ideas
Use rich browns for the beaver and logs, a dark green for the pine tree and lots of blue for the river. A tan or khaki works well for the cattails. Crayons work best for younger kids, while colored pencils and fine-tip markers are great for the small details.
