Great to see @CBSMornings highlight how #lowtechPBR to build #BDAs as soft-landing pads for beaver. Nice work @beaverbunkhouse, @RestorationUSU , @EmilyFairfax, @UtahDWR and @AnabranchS! "Beavers used to make land drought-resistant " → tinyurl.com/5ypdh392

With record temperatures being experienced across Britain the incidence and risk of wildfire has never been greater. Research by @EmilyFairfax has shown that #beavers offer a low-cost way to moderate riparian habitat damage during wildlife, and may even help limit fire spread!
