The mountain beaver (Aplodontia rufa) is a North American rodent. It has several common names, including: aplodontia, boomer, ground bear, and giant mole. The name sewellel beaver comes from sewellel or suwellel, the Chinookan term for a cloak made from its pelts. This species is the only living member of its genus, Aplodontia, and family, Aplodontiidae. It should not be confused with true North American and Eurasian beavers, to which it is not closely related.
