What is a beaver managed landscape?
I just read the article in 2015 about hard and soft releases. And how there are no resources in Oregon to do a “soft release” and that it wasn’t any better..🤷🏼♂️ about that. Great presentation!
Super great!!
I love your work!
Great work Jackie! Thanks for sharing.
...I wish we would call it urban sprawl into beaver habitat and not beaver in urban environments... there were beaver before the houses and farms were ever there :( Such fantastic information thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much for having us!
Thankyou Beaver Institute! I love our PNW Sea Otters.
I expect this is old hat for y'all, but in the off chance nobody's seen it, I think the role of grassy vegetation root networks enabling aquifer replenishment really deserve equal emphasis in what sure starts to sound like the three-legged stool of cyclic ecosystem replenishment: ruclips.net/video/ZSPkcpGmflE/видео.html Beaver - Keep local water local Grasses and general vegetation - Get some of the water into the ground and off the surface, protect the soil and bacterial colonies, and feed the beaver (keep the water) Fauna - Recycle the grasses and enable the cyclic lifecycle of vegetation renewal through gastric/locomotive tillage There's a more regional/global role of the beaver forage (trees) actually contributing to regional and global rainfall with *terpenes now connected to cloud seeding, but clearly outside the scope of this micro/local research on crop rotation and livestock health. Obviously you can't have a healthy global water cycle if the local water cycle is wrecked. Kudos for what sounds like a very well controlled and thought-out research effort into the ways to graze. Thank you for your sensitivity in how to frame and present data to farmers--there is such a tapestry of cultural tradition there that it's a painfully emotional process no matter what you do.. Farmers' decisions are linked to the literal life and death of their farms, their farms are the beating hearts of their families, and any remote possibility that they've made a choice or series of choices that didn't have the absolute best possible outcome will be, at *best*, intensely emotional. Because who wouldn't make the best decisions for themselves and theirs? I am deeply appreciative of your very real effort and consideration that is plainly evident.
CalFire should bend every available effort towards identifying and emplacing beaver across the state
The logging cartels will not ever let this happen.
horrible fucking audio, how do you expect someone to watch this you dumbasses?
I want to lease run bison in NW Arkansas and I would love to increase the beaver population here! Thank you for the important work. I may end up taking your class on a beaver business!
Excellent presentation Chris. Want to get a malt at Bridgeman's?
Thank you for these important contributions to getting back to native landscapes. I am a Native plant forager in Arkansas and am looking into broader landscape restoration techniques and it is quite obvious that I alone can't pick every invasive or cut them back to slow their spread. Knowing that beavers are effective at this and also just belong around our water ways is great! I will do what I can to inform others about their effect on landscapes!
Simply amazing. Grateful you all shared such valuable information. What really caught my attention as a computer modeling guy was "how do beavers create clouds?"--what a lovely question. Clouds generated from expanding biomass in arid regions would be a complicated equation but there are water surface area calculations I believe could be applied. Another aspect of the modeling equation should include expanding forests in places like The Navajo Nation, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah as I believe there are also equations that can applied that refer to how much cloud nucleation is associated with an area of forest. NOAA already has extensive wind and air moisture modeling--which is a lot of computational work that is already done. I do computer modeling and don't have a pedigree in statistics but I work enough with them to be comfortable talking at fairly in depth levels of abstract equations. This certainly seems like a multi field problem but imagine reducing the drought strain in the Midwest by using beavers to bring back forests in what are now arid lands...while also addressing Navajo Nation water scarcity issues. I found beavers are a simple solution to several challenging environmental problems and it seems the most complicated part is Permitting.

Too bad this has no audio
I hope it goes well with the new Beaver program in CA.
Boss called wildlife "services" and they came out and drowned the beavers. I was sick. Be careful who you call for "help" if you think wildlife is causing you imaginary problems. Wildlife "services" kill millions every year of inconvenient wildlife.
This is awesome. Great work!
There was a town in Maine with an emergency reservoir in case of fires, it was leaking and needed to be fixed. The mayor brought in a contractor and it was estimated to cost ten thousand+ to fix. A beaver moved in and plugged the leak. Save a small a ton of money.
I see many supports installed incorrectly, seen this system fail much too often
Not sure what "supports" you are referring to, but the Pond Leveler installed in this video was designed and installed correctly and is Guaranteed to work with a Money Back Guarantee.
@@michaelcallahan2401 the fence posts should be on the inside not on the outside, the pressure of the beaver building will crush the fencing , I am in NewHampshire and have been seeing many installed on the outside as yours is and the fencing caves in
Fascinating help
Thank you!!! There are so many that could benefit from proper beaver management, I will send this to my wife immediately.
Do you have enough native fish, frogs, salamanders, native birds, etc. to keep the mosquitoes in check?
Cool
What a fascinating, wonderful video. Only had time to watch half before my boss interrupted me but will definitely watch the rest at home.
That is so cool.
He talks very pleasantly.
Excellent, thought-provoking talk. Thanks.
Can’t get enough of these talks. Thank you for publishing. It’s great to hear about projects in different regions.
Awesome perspectives!!
The Earth is cooler with the atmos/GHGs/albedo not warmer. To perform as advertised the GHGs require “extra” energy upwelling from the surface radiating as a black body. ruclips.net/video/0Jijw7-YG-U/видео.html The kinetic heat transfer processes of the contiguous atmos molecules render that scenario impossible. No greenhouse effect, no GHG warming, no man/CO2 driven climate change or Gorebal warming. Who is first to censor/delete my science? You or Google?
Fantastic, thanks!
This design sort of functions, but there are some issues, the exit velocity from the box and the slope of the pipe at the upstream end, in particular. There are better designs, but they involve more costly construction and installation. NOAA Fisheries has produced one. In general, beaver pond levelers do not pass fish effectively.
Thanks for watching the video and for your comments, although in my experience teh Snohomish Pond Leveler does pass fish effectively. I do not understand your issue with "the slope of the pipe at the upstream end". When built and installed properly the pipe does not slope up. Also, please share examples of the better designs you cited, including the NOAA design. I'd love to see them. Thank you.
I wonder what you base that conclusion upon? Based upon our limited experience, I respectfully disagree.
I agree this design will pass fish, if properly installed and maintained. I permitted many of these in King County while working for WDFW for over 31 years, and they are rarely installed correctly or maintained correctly.@@michaelcallahan2401
Apparently this passes beavers, but not fish.
This passageway is used by many different types of animals, but not fish obviously. Fish evolved with beavers and their dams over millions of years, so it makes sense that beaver dams should not be removed in a misguided effort to "help" the fish. Copious scientific studies have proven the overall benefits of beaver dams to trout and salmon populations. we get more and bigger trout and salmon on streams with beaver dams. In general, leaving natural processes alone to work with as little human interference as possible has the best environmental effects. We try to only intervene as little as possible to resolve real issues. For example, if this site (it is not) was a salmonid producing stream then the Fence and Pipe device used here would have been modified with a Snohomish Pond Leveler to facilitate salmonid movement past the beaver dam on the culvert fence.
@@michaelcallahan2401 This includes a photo of the box, which is an improvement over the Snohomish pond leveler. nwtreatytribes.org/tribes-find-ways-to-keep-beavers-from-blocking-fish-passage/ I am trying to get a copy of the video which provides more detail of the design and installation.
@@fisherofmen9212 Thanks for the photo, but it is tough to see much of the design. So if you can find the video that would be great so I can learn more about this design. If it is easier to email please send the link to mike@beaverinstitute.org. We could even add it to our online library. Thanks.
A modern spiritual odyssey
Thank you so much for posting this, it's wonderful to see the evolution of Skip's thinking on this!
Why don't they dam up the slot in the box?
It certainly is possible but we did not see it. Beavers tend to focus their attention on the upstream "pond" side rather than the downstream side of the dam. I have seen it on pond leveler pipe outlets on occasion though. If it happened on the Snohomish Pond Leveler we would have added some fencing to exclude the beavers but still allow unimpeded fish migration.
@@beaverinstitute9502 Would you agree that the main drawback of a pond leveler is that the water level cannot be modified? What's the alternative method for when landowners wish to adjust water levels, e.g., increase level for irrigation or to flood a duck pond? Thanks for writing!
@@gomertube Hi. Sorry for my delay in replying. The easiest way to modify the pond level either up or down is to install the outlet end of the pipe so it can be raised or lowered at will. The high point of the pipe controls the pond level, so raising or lowering it will correspondingly raise or lower the pond. One caveat though, do not lower the pipe to lower the water less than 3 feet deep at the pipe intake or beavers may detect the flow of water into the pipe and dam around the entire intake protective fence.
