Excellent article, Jason. The beaver is also one of Canada's national symbols, and I am happy that it is, because it gives the beaver prominence. Views on beavers are changing, partly due to education and articles like this one. As your article pointed out, beavers are a necessary species, one that will be necessary to re-engineer our waterways in harmony with Nature.
Thanks, Perry. Appreciate the Canadian perspective. If you haven't read Eager by Ben Goldfarb, I highly recommend it. (He has a new one out now called Crossings, about road ecology, which I've very excited to read. )

I heard about Eager and Ben Goldfarb; I ought to get the book.
