One of the very smart things our friend Virginia Holsworth in Fairfield has done in an effort to protect the beavers in Laurel creek was to sign up the laurel creek beaver community for the creek “Cleanups”. This means they get city recognition, an official sign, improved community , a great opportunity for education, a better sense of ownership in keeping the beavers home clean, and at the end of it all a cleaner creek.
Research says that urban wildlife increases a sense of Community Cohesion, and this is exactly what should happen. Recently her very talented husband Kyle just drew this for the next clean up. Isn’t it perfect?
