This Beaver Dam is So Huge, You Can See It from Space | Climate Heroes
↠ Check out our Climate Heroes series:
In Canada, a beaver family has built a dam extending 850m – that’s more than twice as long as the Hoover Dam. It’s so big it can be seen from outer space. But that’s not the only reason NASA is interested in this architecturally minded species… Increasing diversity and resilience, not to mention creating wetlands, are just some of the impacts beavers can have on their surroundings. What does this mean for the wider environment? And how can we humans learn from it?
