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

Tag: Methow beaver celebration


Yesterday I was proud to ‘grandfather’ another beaver celebration into the world. So I made a little housewarming gift for our friends at the Methow project.  I like the way it came out.

Now there’s a great NCPR interview I’ve been just dying to share.

Chewing over three books about beavers

Traveling around the North Country it is easy to see the work of beavers – dams and ponds and sometimes flooded roads. Are these clever rodents a nuisance or a benefit to our landscape? Todd Moe talked with Betsy Kepes after she read three books about Castor Canadenis, the North American beaver.

It’s a fun interview, and its wonderful to read that someone else cried when the matriarch died in Lily Pond. We were driving home from the mountains 6 months after mom beaver died and I wept so much we had to pull over. Hope really touched a lot of people, didn’t she?

Now lets go back to Washington state and K5 news where some beavers are being reintroduced after showing up in the wrong culvert. I admit, it isn’t often I like everything I see about a beaver relocation undertaking, but this seems pretty smooth.
