The beavers are due to arrive at Nene Wetland’s Delta Pit in autumn next year
The plan to bring beavers back to Northamptonshire’s Nene Valley is quickly becoming a reality, with Delta Pit at Nene Wetlands identified as an ideal place for them to call home. Now, The Wildlife Trust for Northamptonshire is launching an appeal looking for £73,982 to help fund all the preparations involved.
The funding will also go towards curated interpretation boards, educational information packs and specialist trail cameras to monitor the animals’ progress once they’ve arrived. The beavers will be sourced via Beaver Trust and are due to arrive in the autumn of 2024. “They are ecosystem engineers and bringing them back to the Nene Wetlands means they will help create a diverse habitat which will benefit a range of species. By supporting this appeal you can play your part in bringing the beavers back, and will be helping us inspire people with a story of hope.
