I'll review this:

Cites inline to reliable sources
QPQ done
Hook is brief, I think it's interesting, verified

Issues

Ref 1 is a not-found link; did you intend http://fieldmuseum.org/sites/default/files/Myconet_13a.pdf or http://fieldmuseum.org/explore/myconet?
With the hook, I first thought it meant a fungus in a scar on the beaver (like it was injured), not a teeth scar in a tree. Is there a way to make the hook clearer?
Add URL for ref 3? [1]

Thanks for reviewing! I replaced the first ref, added the url, and clarified the hook. Sasata (talk) 05:50, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Blegh, I need to stop this thing of not getting back to reviews in a timely manner. Anyway, no copyvio is evident, sources verify article in spotcheck, and I will AGF on the one offline source. Chris857 (talk) 04:31, 15 November 2013 (UTC)
