Beavers play such an extremely important role in ecosystems; dams restore wetlands with biodiversity comparable to tropical rainforest, cleanse water, help regulate climate and moderate flow of streams and rivers. Past over hunting beaver has had a radical negative impact but conversely present reintroduction efforts can rapidly and effectively restore wetlands. 🧵2/2

@minouette Lovely print! Waving hello from Oregon, the beaver state!
There's even a beaver silhouette on on the back our state flag, the only state flag where the front and back are different.
Just a little more beaver trivia for you
