The November full Beaver Moon will peak on November 5 at 8:19 am EST. It is the closest the moon has been to Earth this year, so it will also be a super moon bobbing only 221,817 miles away from our planet. The moon will look its largest when it is near the horizon of course, because our brain compares it to trees and/or buildings. It's called a moon illusion.
Now one could speculate here that because it's the beaver/super moon, our common beaver grows to an astonishingly large and aggressive beast, terrorizing the landscape, snarling and chomping huge trees that tower like the great redwoods of the west deep in the forest - trees that they could never endeavor to tackle any other time. It's a strange phenomenon that harkens back to a time their ancestors, the size of our present day houses, roamed the Earth with teeth ten feet long and sharp as razors, ravaging the landscape and anything that got in their way. Yikes!
