Description

When Ealing, a London borough plagued by severe flooding that regularly inundated streets and underground transit stations, faced the choice between expensive traditional engineering solutions or an innovative alternative, local conservationists proposed something unexpected: reintroducing beavers. In 2023, the Ealing Beaver Project relocated five wild beavers to Paradise Fields, a 24-acre neglected site, marking the beginning of a groundbreaking rewilding initiative. https://earthclimate.eu/2026/06/20/urban-beavers-as-climate-resilient-engineers/
