New Tools on the Working with Beavers Website |  |
The Working With Beavers website has new tools, videos, and guidance to help landowners and land managers reduce conflict and support healthy, beaver-managed landscapes. The Working With Beavers website has even more practical tools and resources for landowners, and land managers looking to support healthy watersheds by coexisting with beavers. Whether you're dealing with blocked culverts, flooded roads, or gnawed trees, the updated site walks you through tried-and-true solutions that reduce conflict while maintaining the ecological benefits beavers bring. Beavers & Carbon - Our new Carbon page highlights how beavers help capture carbon and support climate resilience. Did you know, beaver-influenced streams store ~23% of the total landscape carbon. New Videos - Find fresh content on the Resources - Videos and Beaver Benefits pages showcasing how beavers help us mitigate drought and improve water retention, biodiversity, and ecosystem health. We also talk about beaver dam analogues, a type of "low-tech process-based restoration," as a tool we are using to support healthy streams. How to Wrap Trees - Want to protect trees while coexisting with beavers? We've now included an instructional video from NatureScot showing you how to properly wrap trees to prevent damage. Check it out here! Explore the updated site and see how working with beavers - not against them - can help build more resilient and biodiverse landscapes. | |
