July 21, 2023 at 8:54 pmI live in San Francisco and recently saw beaver activity on a camping trip in the Sierra Mtns. I came home and read a book I’d recently bought, Beaverland. I learned in this book about the Martinez beavers and thus visited this website. I’d love to come over and see beavers in Martinez or in the area. I can’t tell from the website whether they’re still there. Have they moved away or could I still see them or their handiwork?
