Beaver are THE answer to keeping the Portneuf watershed healthy
Hi,
Thank you for being part of Watershed Guardians! Since 2011, Watershed Guardians have counted beaver activity within your watershed. We have the longest continuous beaver population monitoring project in the United States.
Why? Because nobody else is advocating for this kind, peaceful and powerful animal. When our volunteers count activity, we witness both the creation of amazing watersheds and also observe the destruction of streams and habitat when they are trapped.
The fact that there are more moose, ducks, songbirds, bigger fish, and more intact functioning ecosystems is no joke, no accident. Beaver create all of these benefits without taking a single thing from us, except a little space alongside the creek. But not everyone feels this way.
By demonstrating effective non-lethal solutions to minor conflicts, we can make space for beaver in our watershed. Would you like to help us further this goal? Many have, but like the beaver, we are holding by a thread.
Please consider a generous donation to Watershed Guardians and help us keep the movement for a healthy watershed alive. It's an uphill fight, but we can do it if we don't quit. With your support, we can keep going.
Thank you,
Mike Settell,
Director, Watershed Guardians
