Overview
- Munich police reported an overnight call to Falkenstraße in the Au, where officers accompanied a beaver until it entered the Auer Mühlbach, sharing video of the escort.
- The police patrol did not capture the animal and instead guided it to avoid hazards before it reached the waterway.
- On Saturday afternoon, March 7, staff at the Dantebad in Neuhausen‑Nymphenburg found a beaver trapped in a half‑empty outdoor pool and tried a makeshift plank and ladder that the animal refused to use.
- A small fire brigade unit built a wooden ramp that the beaver accepted, allowing it to leave the pool apparently unharmed, with its subsequent whereabouts unknown to the department.
- It remains unclear if the beaver seen overnight is the same one from the pool incident, and the two sites are about seven kilometers apart, a distance within the upper range of reported beaver territories.
