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

Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner?


Meet Joe Cannon & Amanda Parrish from the Lands Council in Washington. Amanda is the Director of the Beaver Project and Joe is its Senior Ecologist. They came to the Lands Council as Americorp volunteers and now are golden employees running a prestigious program that California needs to copy. Together they run an all expense paid relocation resort program for beavers in Washington. I met them in Oregon at the State of the Beaver Conference where they presented on their community outreach programs and work with the public. (Amanda likes making candy dams with children which is a delicious way to learn ecology!) They had planned to come down for the beaver festival, but missed it by ten days. Instead they will come tonight for a meet and greet and get to sit in on the Worth A Dam post-mortem of the event.


These are beavers in Hancock (live) traps

This is what the back of Joe's car looks like when he's working...



Welcome to your new home little beavers! Good Luck!


Tonights conversation should be fascinating! No word yet from Brock on how yesterday’s capital Coho meeting went, I’ll keep you posted.
