From an American viewpoint the beaver need to be put back in our Midwest where the fur trade basically removed them from the ecosystem. I agree 100% with this speaker.

This lady is so incredibly knowledgeable bout Scotland's native flora & fauna. Cherish your wilderness & its inhabitants, if we don't play nicely
with nature both locally & globally, nature will retaliate – as you will have heard when we recently lost 1 billion of our animals in Australia's escalating annual bushfire season.
