http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-33247511

Baby beavers are called kits (like on knight rider) and these ones look like they're having the time of their life, jumping and splashing and playing, they just don't give a dam !!

The colony of wild beavers was first spotted living on the River Otter, which to be honest is just plain confusing.

This is the first time that an extinct mammal has been re-introduced to England. Other species, such as wild boar, have naturalised after escaping from enclosures and causing fkn mayhem.

Beavers were hunted to extinction in England and Wales for their valuable fur and glandular oil during the 12th Century and disappeared from the rest of the UK 400 years later.

Steve Hussey, from the DWP, said "We have no plans to tag them at the moment. If we do, it will just be for identification purposes. The less we disturb them the better.

"They are healthy beavers, so they will breed. But they are not like rodents, they only have one litter a year, and they take two to three years to reach sexual maturity. The river system in east Devon is nowhere near filled to capacity.

Birds, beavers, proper naturist you are Pat.
 
Oh great, angler's,canoeists, and farmers have something else to fight once they get past the cyclists, hahaha

In our view, government agencies should not be carrying out hare-brained experiments such as introducing new species to rivers until they have tackled the massive problems with low flows, flooding, pollution, habitat loss and barriers to fish migration that are endemic in the nation’s waterways.

I was aware of the Scottish project that's been on the go for years to introduce them mate, but didn't know of one in Devon / Somerset .

There's a lot to of opposition from game fishermen and land owners due to the fact that they claim that the Beavers alter the course of the river when building dams, causing unfavourable conditions for game fish.
So far I don't think any have been killed, but if the fishing lot are anything like the shooting lot it won't be long - Hen Harriers being a prime example of mindless persecution.

I really don't know too much about it to be honest mate, just thought I'd break the news on this one, I could maybe make some sort of innuendo about beavers must smell of fish, but that's about as much as I can offer on this soz
