METHOW BEAVER PROJECT

Methow Beaver Project promotes working with Beavers as partners for restoring streams, riparian habitat, and biodiversity while reactivating wetlands, increasing water storage, and fostering community education and involvement to improve the health and resilience of the Methow River watershed... When we began our mission in 2008, our focus was to aid ecosystem process-based restoration by relocating nuisance beavers from private lands to suitable, unoccupied stream segments on public lands where their presence and behaviors would foster riparian resiliency and watershed health. Ten years later, we have expanded our efforts to include retaining beavers on private lands in the anadromous or salmon bearing segment of the Methow Watershed, relocating beavers to public lands in these areas, and increasing structure and vegetation in degraded streams to better support relocated beavers and our community... Methow Beaver Project provides solutions to support landowners, restoration..
