S5 Ep96: Dam Engineers | The Beavers of Holnicote
Update: 2021-06-03
Description
Exmoor National Park and the Holnicote estate is known for its rolling hills, green pastures and flowing rivers, but these natural features also pose an ecological threat.
To engineer a solution, our area rangers have sought the help of a rather mischievous workforce of Beavers.
Once hunted to extinction, Beavers have now been reintroduced into Britain's Habitats to play a vital role in protecting our environment.
