A big year for beavers 🦫 From supporting the first wild beaver release in England to expanding our education programme. These steps bring us closer to restoring Britain's beaver population. Thank you to all our supporters, we couldn’t do this without you

Two weeks ago, a historic release at Nene Wetlands welcomed Northants’ first beavers in 400 years. We caught up with @wildlifebcn at the release to hear more about this milestone moment 🎥👇

This isn’t Norway or Germany, but a wetland thrumming with life in late Autumn in Scotland! All thanks to a #beaver family who have been resident here for over a decade! A vision of what more of our landscapes could look like if we restore Britains beaver population

London's first urban beavers make a splash! 🦫 It's an absolute joy to release a family of beavers into Paradise Fields, Ealing, and to see them exploring their new home. @WildlifeEaling @CitizenZoo @EalingCouncil @FriHoHi @ThatVetSean @fivesisterszoo

Our team were delighted to release a family of 7 healthy #beavers into Loch Lomond NNR last Friday. Congratulations to @RSPBScotland and everyone else involved in the project. It's a great achievement and an important step in the restoration of the species in Scotland.

Beavers are back in the Cairngorms! 🎉 This is the first out-of-range translocation (beyond where natural expansion would be expected in the short term) & sees the return of beavers to the area for the first time in around 400 years 🙌 Find out more 👇 buff.ly/3RudzYj

It's getting (too) hot in here 🥵 with wildfires raging across Italy and Greece & several other countries at risk. Research has shown beaver wetlands can form a lush oasis as a refuge for wildlife while the fires rage as shown powerfully in this photo by @fluvialwheaton (1/3)

“Beavers will return to rivers across England under government plans to be announced this week to grant licences allowing them to be released into the wild.” WHAT a way to start the week!! 🤯We’re not out of the woods yet - but this is a light💫 #beavers

We were delighted to release a family of 4 beavers @WallingtonNt yesterday. Congratulations to @nationaltrust, @fivesisterszoo & everyone involved. Wallington is an ideal site, where the beavers can demonstrate their ability to restore nature & provide landscape-scale benefits.

“The study found that when dam-building beavers were present, the rate of nitrogen removal from a river increased by nearly 50 per cent, and oxygen levels rose.” Beavers aren’t a silver bullet, but they are part of the solution to restoring our rivers. thetimes.co.uk/article/33cc56…
