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

Mistaken for 75 years


This is a nice video about the value of beaver wetlands from England.  One of the best parts of the beaver dramas in Scotland, and now Devon, is that it allows really smart people to get time on the news explaining why beavers help us. This shows not only great habitat but a great explanation of ‘peaty soil’ soaking up the water. To make its case it inserts a news reel from 1939 about using beavers to build creeks in America. It shows beavers vigorously building dams, and then gives a closeup of one munching away. Guess what the closeup is of? Go ahead, guess.


CaptureThe stunning part is you can even see the TAIL of the second nutria. Obviously the filmmaker was on his way to lunch and the producer didn’t care.  It’s just a film reel.  Who would notice?

Just us.
