A river contains several beaver dams that are constructed from tree limbs and mud. If other beavers move to this area to build a dam, what is one need for which they are most likely competing?

Beavers need suitable space along the river to build a dam and shelter. Since several dams are already present, new beavers are most likely competing for space adequate for building a shelter. Sunlight and flowing water are not the main limited resources described here.
