Beaver ID, monitoring year and river were included as random effects. We performed model averaging of best models (ΔAICc < 4) to estimate the effect size of each variable. Informative parameters are given in bold.

Reference level of sex: Female.

Reference level of carried telemetry device: No.

Reference level of origin: Immigrant.
