Jimmy Taylor has to be the most pro-beaver member of Wildlife Services in the entire United States. (This might not be as much of a compliment as you think…) But this morning his lecture for Oregon Wildlife showed up on You Tube. The most exciting parts come at the end discussing what his graduate students have learned in beaver relocation studies. The beavers they relocate have radio tagged tails so they can learn about dispersal and mortality but it’s surprising how many findings from all this advanced science are consistent with what we’ve learned by just watching here in Martinez.
