Protect Beavers in Their Natural Habitat

"A small family of three wild beavers has recently been spotted living along a river in Devon, England. The beavers are comfortably settling into their new home, but England’s Department for Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs plans to capture them and remove them from the river, forcing them back into captivity because of concerns that they will dam the river on which they are presently living. Some claim they are concerned that the reintroduction of the species will have a negative effect on the surrounding environment. If the beavers are removed from their new habitat, it will mark the second time in history that this wild species has been thwarted by human intervention.

 

Please sign this petition in support of the reintroduction of beavers to their native habitat, and ask England’s Department of Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs to support this reintroduction and allow these wild beavers to live peacefully."
