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

BEAVERS: DEPT OF INTERIOR APPROPRIATIONS BILL


Who had federal government on their beaver bingo card? We knew it would happen eventually. Beavers in Department of Interior Appropriations Bill for stream health.

Beavers and Aquatic Habitat.—

The Committee notes that beavers are an important native species across North America, and are a well-known ecosystem engineer with the ability to create new wetlands and improve habitats for a wide array of other species. In addition, the habitats they develop may help with regulating the effects of extreme weather events associated with a changing climate, including creating natural fire breaks, natural carbon capture, and water storage. Federal land managers are encouraged to work with state wildlife managers on beaver conservation, to make planning decisions that recognize beavers’ environmental and ecological benefits, and to identify locations where restoration of their habitat may be most beneficial

Call senator Merkely and thank him for seeing the beavers for the trees!
