Beaver Hats & Beaver History - with Ben Goldfarb
Listen now
Description
To kick off a brand new series, Team Lodge Cast at Beaver Trust couldn't think of a more apt person to help with this than Ben Goldfarb.  Award-winning environment writer, and author of the book, Eager; the secret life of beavers and why they matter - Ben is in a league of his own when it comes to helping us understand beavers and our surprisingly entwined history with them in the USA and UK. Ben unpacks the fascinating social and ecological nuance surrounding their reintroduction, and offers valuable lessons learned from their more established presence in the USA. Also coming up: a brand new #FactOff challenge and producer Emma comes out of her box with a juicy QUIZ. Need we say more? Dive on in!  Are you a beaver believer? We want to hear from you: Beaver Trust.  Want more beaver? Please subscribe and leave us a lovely little review, so we can bring the joy of beavers to more ears!  Hosted by Sophie Pavelle and Eva Bishop.  Produced and edited by Emma Brisdion.
