I received word this morning that the final edits from Pinehurst Pictures & Sound on the beaver solutions DVD have been completed and Mike Callahan is on his way to pick up the very first copy for review. This means that we are weeks away from having the finished product be printed and available for people everywhere who are looking for a way to manage beaver behavior without killing. I can’t think of a better way to help Taryn in Wisconsin, Randall in Chicago, or Darren in Georgia. This is going to make a difference for beavers everywhere, which will make a difference in turn for the animals that depend on them for habitat; salmon, songbirds, turtles, woodduck, otters…you name it.
As I am fond of saying: it’s the trickle-down economy that actually works.
We are excited about the possibilities and wish Mike the best. We can’t wait to get our own copy and maybe one to offer at the silent auction for the Beaver festival. I bet the department of public works can use it to help the filter on the flow device which saw some cruel mistreatment this winter. Hmm maybe a copy for Fairfied just in case that perforated pipe stops working. And Sonoma if they get another vine-thief in their vineyards this spring…Antioch if it turns out the picture from Marsh Creek was accurate….Heather Farms if the rumors are true…Danville if the creek behind that man’s house is still dammed…One for Brock so he can add it to the OAEC watershed tool box…and don’t forget Los Gatos in case Rick gets really lucky….
Looks like we need a few of copies! Congratulations Mike! We wish you a big dam success!
