I am replying to this as my Module 4 participation. Holly, I just love that some of your projects are focusing on the top of the watersheds. Torrey Ritter also did/does an excellent job explaining beaver habitat here in the course and out in the field. Also, the need for connectivity and the process of creation and abandonment with dams. It really has me inspired to start looking upstream from me, and looking for potential beaver habitat with connective routes. I don’t know if it’s a viable goal to increase beaver populations upstream, as I know trapping is pretty prevalent here. However, I wonder if landowners upstream may be interested in BDA’s as a minimum. Thanks for the inspiration.
