Full Beaver Moon - who knew?

So says the Old Farmer's Almanac online Companion:

Look up!?

Go outside and see the Full Beaver Moon tonight! This full Moon is a sign of freezing weather to come. For Algonquin tribes, it was a time to set beaver traps before the swamps froze to ensure a supply of warm winter furs. Learn more about Full Moon names and see our free Moon Phase Calendar for the exact date and time of full moons.

"Full Beaver Moon". But, they wouldn't get it.
