- At first glance, beavers might seem like cute rodents to some or a nuisance to others. But these industrious mammals have the capacity to solve water and climate-related issues by transforming creeks and rivers. They can act as a tool to fight drought, flooding, wildfire, extinction, and climate change. In this story, we look at beaver reintroduction efforts on the San Pedro River in Southern Arizona and Northern Sonora. Before they were trapped to extinction, there were so many beavers on the San Pedro that it was called the Beaver River. Meet the people trying to bring them back.

I love these programs showing rewilding.
Me too. I can't get enough rewilding. Mossy Earth has a good YT channel, and bison are being reintroduced, bears, wolves, I love it. Beavers are the best though because they make watersheds work.
Finding beavers west of Tombstone on the San Pedro River would be awesome!
The Verde River east of Paulden, Arizona has a very healthy beaver population. :)
Yes! I live uphill from the San Pedro. Love this and will post it on FB.
oh wow I love beavers. I was always curious about maybe the White Mountains in Arizona but I never figured right here in Southern Arizona.
This is so beautiful! Thank you From Phoenix 🫶
I love beavers ❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
WMG does an excellent job.
It seems to me that bringing in beavers from many different areas in the US would diversify the gene pool of the beavers in the area. If all the beavers came from just one or two family lines in the San Pedro, that interbreeding causes problems which might explain the declining numbers. Bringing in new bloodlines from many different locations in the US should greatly enhance the chances for success.

Go Beavers. Beavers forever.
As the Mountain Man said " beavers gonna shine again " !
Beavers are such an S tier animal
what is a chew, im in Australia and i guessed that? go the beaver!
A 'chew' is the woodchip left by a beaver.
Mr. Beast gets 10 million views on his silly, but lovable videos. Sure he does altruistic works, wells in Africa, but it's a bit of grandstanding and view harvesting. You on the other hand, are connected to the life and health of the system and making video content to make a living is not the goal. I wish you more success.
lovable? His psychotic torture fetish you mean.
They actually aren't killing the trees! The way that they chew the trees doesn't fully kill the tree and the tree can actually regrow
Some trees can, but most of the trees they chew are killed, dragged into the water and the bark is eaten.
I think they pollard them in their way?
@louisegogel7973 it's sorta like that, but they do end up fully felling the tree, but I don't think that it's fully cut in twain.
Random recommendation but love it :)
Back in the 1950's and 1960's there were federal programs to parachute beavers into remote, back country sites. What became of those programs?
They were never able to train the beavers to pull the cord for the parachute.
I believe that they decided that the cost of doing that was prohibitive.
Beavers are gods answer to life! They control the water and you can’t live without water!!!💪🇺🇸🦅💯
Beaver should be the national animal for North America
@@Rarasrevenge Beaver is the national animal for Canada, our country was established and explored though the beaver trade.
Beavers prevent forest fires and floods.
Thank you.
Hawley lake on Apache res. had bevers back when i was 9 years old. I'm now 73.
My neck of the woods. Palominos, Hereford, Miracle Valley.
Nice
yea beavers!!
If you guys in the West want beavers, the Northeast USA can supply as many beavers as you want. Massachusetts alone has 70,000 beavers. They're becoming a nuisance.
Love it❤
The beaver is the national animal of Canada.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wolves take a big toll on beaver in some locations in Canada. Wouldn't be surprised to find out that lions can do the same, "big kitty with a mouse."
I'd love to see evergreens planted adjacent to the riparian forests... Maybe long leaf pine or Bald Cypress would work in Arizona and New Mexico.
For what reason? Are they native species to those areas?
News flash, Our Heavenly father Created beavers to do what they do best, give Him glory and acknowledge his handy work. Evolution has no place in the creators plan.
I agree. Some humans have become smart only to become fools. Nature always helps
I’d love to get involved with beavers and most of a water and lake restoration’s
The Beaver Institute and the Human-Beaver Coexistence Fund are great orgs in USA!! Beaver trust in England 9:48
Castors canadiensis
What is a chew? Bless you 😅
I seen beaver in the gila River in phoenix. People will shoot them and let them rott in the river. Its sad to see them floating decomposing. Less and less sightings
I ❤ beavers! 😂
Foster , where going Mexico green
What happens to Beavers when water dries up?
they move or change it
Human beavers…see Turkey Pen Watershed restoration in Arizona
They don't say "busy beaver" for no reason....
19th century land management and in general human domination of nature is still very entrenched in a lot of Business as Usual thinking in big cities and Board Rooms. Making the difference happen will be a grassroots activist passion for years. But the fruits are ground water recharge, greening and cooling of the landscape, soil retention, species protection. But how does it make money? Stop making money and we will survive. If making money is the goal, then we all loose.
I wonder if the climate will change for the state of New Mexico! Is such an empty state that it worth an extra effort the increase water in state ! Beavers are cheaper than. Men workers !
No need for backgound music
Mossey earth is trying to rewild rivers they work with landowners and volenters
There are still beavers in the US? I thought we killed 'em all.
BANG! BANG! 🤪😜💀👻
Are you another beaver hater animal ? So negative of you
12-15 million estimated. Down from 200 million in 1700s.
Do make me laugh beavers... they're like big chubby ratty things!
That looks not so much sneaky, as incompetent.
Beaver is dangerous, it's best to never turn your back on one and always keep an eye on them!
Seriously ? Very negative comment
@@aprilguyguyon107 the have been known to attack in packs!
Maybe for weak like you
If anyone in the U.S. is caught having killed a beaver they should get at least 2 years in prison with NO PAROLE!
beavers should be protected no different than eagles. fuck with a beaver, it's dam, it's nest etc. JAIL + massive fines
You are a little short sighted my friend. If beavers get too numerous, disease will kill them all off. When I was a kid, and into my twenties, we had a lot of beavers here, but then something wiped them out! Now, every time beavers move back in, it only takes a year or so and they have died back out. We have huge amounts of perfect beaver habitat, but until whatever the disease is goes away we have no beavers.
