Authorities helped a beaver trapped in an enclosed pool of water make its way back to a lake Sunday morning in Southlake.
Officers were called to rescue the beaver, which was hanging out on a blue float, at a pond off Westmont Drive behind the Central Market on Southlake Boulevard, according to Southlake DPS.
After officers tried to catch the beaver in a net and entice it to leave its float using other methods, they finally opted to balance a wood plank on the pool float, leading the beaver out of the enclosed area.
The beaver climbed the plank and returned to the neighboring lake.
