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.
