Beaver

In this day we were able to visit the territory of a beaver family during an excursion along the local stream.

Lying alder and poplar trees and a flooded bank area show interesting insights into the life of these long disappeared largest rodents of our homeland. The animals had become extinct almost exclusively because of their valuable fur coat, which was traded at very high prices by our ancestors until the end of the 19th century.

Now it is back and with its appearance it is regrettably upsetting the farmers concerned. We plead in the case of damage for appropriate compensation by the community to appreciate the wealth of Mother Nature thus. Beavers, wolves and even bears have an unconditional right to live in the world next to us humans.

Maybe you have time and joy and want to have a close look at the beaver?
We can teach his right to live to our children and also promote his importance in the neighborhood and politics.

Length of the animal around 8.5 cm from the nose to the tip of the long paddle tail.
