Beavers have been extinct in the UK since the 16th Century - The time of The Tudors but since 2022 beavers have begun to be reintrdoduced in some parts of the country.
Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust have been running a feasibility study to assesses the viability of having wild-living beavers in Gloucestershire. This study has been done by carrying out biological, ecological, social and legal studies. And results are starting to come in.
Dee Durham, Beaver Feasibility Co-Ordinator for Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust, will be giving a talk on the current findings of the study and where the project to reintroduce beavers to Gloucestershire currently finds itself.
We expect this event to be popular so get your tickets while you can. (It will also be available via Livestream at Facebook. for those who can't attend)"
