  3. "There's a beaver dam in northern Canada that's twice as wide as the Hoover Dam, and was discovered from satellite photos because it's so remote, and forms a wetland delta despite there not being any distinct creeks or rivers feeding into it." --Beaver Stan Account (on Bluesky), from January 2024.

  8. Here's a lovely story to start the weekend.

    After conservationists reintroduced a family of beavers to a nearby park, Greenford underground station flooding has reportedly been reduced by around 90% 🥳 🦫

    The beavers built dams and restored wetlands that now absorb and slow floodwater naturally.

    Authorities had planned major man-made flood infrastructure, but the beavers effectively created their own system — while also boosting biodiversity and restoring the ecosystem around them.

  13. 🦫🏗️ Researchers in #Ealing, #London, are tracking a family of five #beavers that moved into a former golf course.

    The #animals build wooden #dams that hold back #rain, preventing local neighborhoods from #flooding. Their work creates #wetlands that attract #birds and #insects while helping the city adapt to changing #weather.

  18. As long as I've lived in my neighbourhood there has been at least 1 family of beavers along the creek nearby. But after I noticed their dam broke and lodge collapse I went on a hike along Blackmud Creek looking for where the beavers set up shop this year and I couldn't find a new dam or lodge. :( might be no beaver friends this year.
