You can plant native species such as aspen and willow in this area. Plant roots add support to the bank structure where beavers burrow and create channels. There is little maintenance after planting, and it helps to reduce agricultural chemical run-off and increases biodiversity. a b c Cassola, F. (2016). " Castor canadensis".

You do not need a licence to modify or remove a dam if it’s less than 2 weeks old or to modify or remove a day rest. Wildlife licences for managing beaver activity

Aside from humans, few other extant animals appear to do more to shape their environment. [64] When building dams, beavers alter the paths of streams and rivers, allowing for the creation of extensive wetland habitats. [65] In one study, beavers were associated with large increases in open-water areas. When beavers returned to an area, 160% more open water was available during droughts than in previous years, when they were absent. [66] Beaver dams also lead to higher water tables in mineral soil environments and in wetlands such as peatlands. In peatlands particularly, their dams stabilize the constantly changing water levels, leading to greater carbon storage. [67]

Native American myths emphasize the beaver's skill and industriousness. In the mythology of the Haida, beavers are descended from the Beaver-Woman, who built a dam on a stream next to their cabin while her husband was out hunting and gave birth to the first beavers. In a Cree story, the Great Beaver and its dam caused a world flood. Other tales involve beavers using their tree chewing skills against an enemy. [137] Beavers have been featured as companions in some stories, including a Lakota tale where a young woman flees from her evil husband with the aid of her pet beaver. [138] Up to four young, or kits, are born in spring and summer, after a three or four-month gestation. [31] [94] Newborn beavers are precocial with a full fur coat, and can open their eyes within days of birth. [24] [31] Their mother is the primary caretaker, while their father maintains the territory. [10] Older siblings from a previous litter also play a role. [95] They also dig burrows and channels into banks of waterbodies (for example, a lake, river or stream), fell trees and build lodges and dams, which may cause: Taking proactive lawful mitigation and management actions that do not need a licence such as installing tree guards to protect trees or removing a dam that is less than two weeks old.Derek Gow: ‘I don’t know what it’s going to look like but there will be a shit tonne more life.’ Photograph: Jonny Weeks/The Guardian You can use visual and auditory scarers that use unpredictable sights and sounds to discourage unwanted beaver activity when beavers first move into an area. These include: Engaging with beaver management groups established around wild-living populations, Natural England and other expert organisations to learn about the potential benefits of beavers and approaches to manage or minimise challenges. The return of beavers will do more to create the right conditions for our wetland habitats, wildlife and ecosystems to thrive than most other management interventions we might take. It is not only the morally responsible thing to do, it is a cost-effective approach to restoring our impoverished environment. A brief history of beavers in Scotland The Beaver had its world premiere at the South by Southwest film festival on March 16, 2011, where the Los Angeles Times reported that it was given "a relatively warm embrace".
