I got two interesting emails yesterday, that reminded me what a truly unique resource Worth A Dam offers for beaver understanding. The first was from Taryn Greendeer of Wisconsin who is worried about saving the beavers on her farm lands. I passed her email along to knowledgeable others and encouraged her to write about her concerns so we could identify solutions. Then I went to her face book page and saw that ‘discovering Worth A Dam’ and contacting us was ONE of those solutions.
Gosh. Blush. I guess there’s not much competition for beaver advocacy out there.
The second surprise came as an email from the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. They would like to use one of Cheryl’s photos in their upcoming exhibit on beaver adaptations. I put the curator in touch with Cheryl who will no doubt give permission, and some Martinez Beavers will eventually grace the halls of the museum.
As it should be, really. We did a lot of work that other cities can benefit from. It’s exciting to be part of saving beavers on a national scale.
