Description

Our presentation is focused on habitat restoration and public outreach with private landowners living along the North Fork of the Cache La Poudre River. With a lowered population of beavers due to anthropogenic impacts, the land is degradedand needs restoration. One technique used for restoration is implementing beaver dam analogs (BDAs)for potential reintroduction. However, historical beaver-human relations prove to be a complicated issue that hold massive implications for both sides. We also plan to stress the importance of communication with landowners and how ensuring the cooperation of these landowners can benefit these projects.
