Dunno about beavers, but I think the squirrel bit is just using their typical hyperactivity as something most people are familiar with.

Squirrels sound like the stereotypical ADHD: bouts of frenetic activity, followed by a freeze, frenetic, freeze, etc.

Beavers... I'd rather associate with mild autism: hear water, need to build dam to get rid of the sound, need to chew tree, everything else is secondary.

Not sure why it seems to be using them as opposites.
