Array of benefits to be had from beavers
2009
Overview
A study in North America undertaken over a 30-year period demonstrated quite clearly in three research sites that where two mosquito species were once common in a river system they declined to the point of virtual extinction once beavers created ponds. The creation of much greater densities of invertebrates feeding on submerged dead wood habitat provides a greater abundance of fish food, the cleaned gravels beneath dams provide spawning areas - the dead wood habitats provide lays for big fish and refuge for fry from predators, and beaver coppicing of riverside trees opens banks to sunshine and rapidly encourages plant growth which again feeds terrestrial insects and fish.
