Beaver Trust

Beaver Trust is restoring beavers to regenerate our landscapes. In the face of the climate and biodiversity crises, beavers bring meaningful environmental benefits. They are a missing native species, having been hunted to extinction in Britain.

Bringing back beavers

Bringing back beavers
Since 2021, Beaver Trust has released beavers at sites across Scotland, England and Wales. We move beavers around Britain; taking them to new homes where they, and the wetlands they create, can flourish.

Boosting biodiversity

Boosting biodiversity
Research has shown the UK is one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world, losing almost half its wildlife and plant species since the industrial revolution. Beavers create a variety of habitats that benefit many plant and animal species.

Flood and drought resilience

Flood and drought resilience
We are increasingly seeing the impact of extreme weather. Beavers are ‘ecosystem engineers’; by building dams and creating wetlands, they help to make our landscapes more resilient to both flooding and drought.
