30 sie 2021 · The scientists, who collected genetic samples from almost 300 beavers in the Coast Range of western Oregon, sought to understand whether landscape features, such as slope and distance to...
Large-scale beaver restoration efforts are taking place in the western United States, where beavers are still far from recovered to their historical distribution and abundance. This map provides information on a number of key studies produced in the last decade that have made significant contributions to our understanding of beaver's role in ...
30 sie 2021 · The researchers collected genetic samples from 292 beavers from 12 counties along the Oregon Coast. They live-trapped 232. The remainder were either road kill or supplied by trappers.
7 wrz 2021 · This new study by Oregon State University surveyed a large swath of the Oregon coastal range (an area as large as Vermont). Researchers took genetic material from over 300 beavers.
13 sie 2019 · Beavers on the coast are helping salmon bounce back. Here’s how. The arrival of beaver dams in the Pacific Northwest’s Elwha River delta may have surprising benefits.
Five studies provide insight into the effect of beaver trapping in 1) an area previously closed and then reopened, 2) two areas both previously trapped and only one closed, and 3) where beaver had existed long enough to build and maintain multiple dams despite the area being opened, then trapped out.
29 wrz 2021 · In an effort to heal degraded Western streams, staff and volunteers on this project visit sites across Utah to do an important activity: mimic beavers. What does this mean? We build low-tech, inexpensive structures in streams called beaver dam analogues (BDAs).
