Beaver Restoration Speaker Series & Workshop

This speaker series and workshop, co-hosted by Wildlands Restoration Volunteers (WRV) and the Coalition for the Poudre River Watershed (CPRW) brings together experts, enthusiasts, and community members passionate about the pivotal role beavers play in creating resilient ecosystems. In addition, learn about low-tech, process-based restoration projects in the Poudre Watershed that are improving habitat and encouraging the return of beavers!

The three-part speaker series will include presentations from leading experts in beaver ecology, conservation, and watershed management. We will learn about the ecological significance of beavers, their impact on water systems, and the crucial role they play in maintaining biodiversity.

We will end the series with an in-person, hands-on workshop on March 31st designed to provide practical insights into beaver habitat restoration techniques. From LTPBR simulations to habitat assessment exercises, participants will gain valuable skills and knowledge to actively contribute to restoration efforts.
