THE LATEST FROM CORNWALL WILDLIFE TRUST — AND THEE IS MORE BEAVER INTRODUCTION

View this email in your browser WILD BEAVER APPEAL Hello there, Imagine a Cornwall where wild beavers are a common feature of our landscape. Imagine walking alongside wetland ecosystems teeming with life, where nature has been allowed to thrive thanks to their ability to reshape rivers, slow the flow of water, and create rich, diverse habitats. Sadly, wild beavers went extinct in the UK hundreds of years ago - and although they have made a partial return in some areas, their return in Cornwall is far from secure. The good news is that we’re working hard to change that. As you may have seen when I wrote to you in your latest Wild Cornwall magazine, we’re eagerly awaiting approval for our licence to release multiple pairs of wild beavers in the Par and Fowey catchments. It’s a story 400 years in the making, and we’re truly excited about the next chapter. Your membership already makes a huge difference to Cornwall’s wildlife - but if you’re able to support our Christmas Appeal, your donation will help push us closer to giving wild beavers the future they deserve in Cornwall. Any gift - no matter the amount - will help make sure we’re ready to go the moment the licence is approved. With heartfelt appreciation this festive season, Lauren Jasper Beaver Officer, Cornwall Wildlife Trust Donate today Read the story so far OTHER WAYS TO GET INVOLVED There are lots of ways you can support the Wild Beaver Appeal aside from directly donating again.
