Each year we have seen a small dark brown rodents run from the lawn we are mowing (my neighbors lawn who doesnt mow very often) into the Drain lid that runs under our driveways and out into a drainage canal at the end of our block. I assumed they were baby muskrats but read that an adult muskrat is the size of a beaver. We have never seen anything the size of a beaver except for an occasional possum. We live out in the country so anything is possible.
