Last Friday, a group of environmental leaders from across the granite state met in Richmond to review some flooding caused by beavers. The goal was to figure out the best way to repair old logging roads to be able to use again. Here are the first five minutes of the meeting, with introductions, titles and the explanation of the problem.
The goal of posting this and the other videos from this gathering is to help provide guidance and opportunities to other landowners dealing with damages caused by beaver. It is a common issue on our region and it was great being witness to many of the state's sharpest environmental minds tackling the issue, while helping local landowners. 🦫
