Beavers are our ecosystems' natural engineers, and possess the rare ability to create their own habitat. In this presentation, we will discuss beavers, their unique behaviors, and the adaptations that drive them to perform those behaviors. We will introduce the ecological benefits they provide, the challenges that can arise from living alongside them, and the solutions Beavers Northwest provides to help with these challenges.
