Rewilding beyond the wilderness: Beavers can restore stream biodiversity from urban to agricultural to natural landscapes

2025-09-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> 1 Beavers have been promoted as a cost-effective nature-based solution to restore degraded stream ecosystems and enhance overall biodiversity. However, the extent to which beaver-engineering boosts biodiversity in human-impacted landscapes remains poorly understood. 2 We assessed the responses of aquatic and terrestrial taxa (amphibians, dragonflies, fish, macrophytes, plankton, terrestrial vege...
