AboutBeavers are Britain’s largest rodent, the group of mammals that includes rats, mice, and voles. They live in freshwater habitats, like rivers and streams, and prefer areas surrounded by wetland plants, trees and woodland. They are rather slow on land but excellent swimmers, so they feel safest when they’re close to deep water (around 70cm deep). If the water isn’t deep enough for them, beavers can make it deeper. They use mud, wood, and stones to build dams across shallow rivers, streams and ditches. The dams are leaky and let some water through, but slow down the flow enough for ponds to form, where the beavers can live and feel secure. Samuels, J. X.; Zancanella, J. (2011). "An early Hemphillian occurrence of Castor (Castoridae) from the Rattlesnake Formation of Oregon". Journal of Paleontology. 85 (5): 930–935. doi: 10.1666/11-016.1. S2CID 128866799. Actions in, or close to, a watercourse or risk management structure may need a permit from the appropriate risk management authority.

In Belarus, a former Soviet republic between Russia and Poland, the beaver population has tripled in the past decade to an estimated 80,000, according to wildlife experts. That has caused beavers increasingly to encroach on populated areas. Between 2012 and 2017, surveys commissioned by SNH showed that beaver territories increased over time from 40 to 114 and the total population increased in size from around 150 to around 433 beavers. Together, these set the standard for conservation translocations and guide best practice. Sixteen beavers from Norway were released at Knapdale during the trial in five family groupings. The original Knapdale trial objectives included studying beaver ecology and biology, assessing their environmental, social and economic impacts and exploring educational opportunities. An additional set of logs received through the activation of nature offerings does not trigger an additional roll for the beaver pet. [16]

If the dam material causes a flood risk, you should remove it to the bank away from the water to reduce the risk, if possible. Remove inactive burrows without a licence Fryxell, J. M.; Doucet, C. M.

Fences near rivers and streams can increase flood risk, so you may need to get permission from the appropriate risk management authority. The report highlighted that beavers were naturally dispersing into other catchments. Worryingly, the report also highlighted areas where beavers were once present in Tayside but had disappeared. Those conducting the survey indicated the evidence pointed to those gaps being mainly due to culls carried out by land managers.
