Environment be damned or don’t be damned. Because you like them or because you don’t like your neighbors … what animals would you like to see locally that are not there ?

    Beaver. Always beaver.

    Australia is mostly degraded, channelised shallow creeks and erosion problems. Bam, beaver does all the work for us.

    Can beavers survive in the subtropics?

      I believe so. I think there was a big thing about European settlers introducing beavers to Peru or northern Chile and causing ecological havoc

      There’s a cool beaver damn down the road from my camp in NW Florida. I’m seeing some maps that disagree, but that land in considered subtropical on all of them.
