My wildlife inspiration for this sculpture was the reintroduction of the Beaver to UK rivers. They help restore ecosystems, improve water quality, and reduce the risk of flooding. #needlefelting #woolsculpture #beavers #handmade #wildlife #reintroducingbeavers #wildlifeartist #needlefeltedbeaver #contentcreator #needlefeltinganimals #needlefeltedkits #onlinetutorials #birdieandblossom | Birdie and Blossom

How beavers are transforming Scotland's waterways 🦫🪵 The reintroduction of beavers has already transformed parts of the Scottish landscape and provided much-needed habitats for many animals, delighting conservationists but alarming some landowners. Besides the flooding that comes with their dams, beavers also raid crops and burrow into riverbanks. However, there are wider benefits in a warming world. A beaver-transformed landscape is going to be far less affected by the ever more extreme heat,
