Because the beaver isn't just an animal; it's an ecosystem!

Day: April 4, 2021


International beaver day is going to be BUSY this year.

Besides the first ever California beaver summit AND the Trust’s beaver quiz help in the UK you are invited to break open a brew with some friends of beavers in Arizona that night.

Beaver & Brews Binational Bash
Wednesday, April 7th from 6p.m. to 8p.m.
                                                                      Register

This virtual gathering will feature stories from biologists, ecologists, and community scientists working directly with beavers in the San Pedro and Santa Cruz international watersheds. Tune in to learn how beavers introduced to the San Pedro River in Arizona have made their way upstream into Mexico and even walked overland to the Santa Cruz Watershed. We’ll have lots of opportunities for questions and toasts (brindes) with all our beaver friends.  

Our binational beaver believer speakers are Allison Kreis with the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, ecologists Antonio Esquer and Mario Cirett-Galan with Profauna México, biologist Carlos Valdez Coronel with Naturalia, Mike Foster with Friends of the San Pedro, and Steve Merkley with Cochise College.

This event caps off WMG’s Release the Beavers spring fundraising campaign. Help us reach our goal of raising $75,000 to support our river restoration and community conservation initiatives and ensure beavers can reclaim their spot as a keystone species in our desert rivers! All donations given by April 7th will be eligible for our matching fund. You can donate when you register for the event or contribute online here

Wow! Beers with Beavers! All the other days in april are going to be jealous of the 7th because they aren’t nearly as cool! I only know one of the speakers, Mike Foster who I’ve been exchanging beaver video and questions for a decade, but  I’m fascinated to hear the others.

And besides, who doesn’t need to have a beer with beavers at the end of a hard day?
