Thanks to beaverCzech Taxpayers escaped one million euros, as aquatic rodents restored a military field in its south Praguecatching up on the bulldozers, as it became known by the Czech Nature Protection Service.

Brdi’s camp was described as a protected natural area in 2016. Authorities would proceed with environmental conversion projects into a wetland but a family of Kastorians said to put a … tooth to help.

“We were predicting to create meanders on the river Klabava, downstream of two Eli and to build two or three ponds as well as a sedimentation tank,” said the Bochumil Fisherexecutive of nature protection service. The main goal was to reduce the sediment and stop the flow of acidic waters from the marshes to the river, as the river was threatened and threatened with extinction.

This plan received a first approval the 2018 but delayed as the discussions on the formation of the former camp. Those in charge did not calculate that the castors would take action, animals that, with their rivers, prevent floods, improve water quality and contribute to biodiversity.

“They made a wetland with pools and channels in a belt almost twice as much as we calculated,” Fisher said. The family then moved to a ditch around the marshes, in which the service wanted to build small dams. The beautors did it, and even completely free, building four in total with their teeth tool.

“We were still discussing the water company and the forest service to which the area belongs,” Fisher added.

From the work of the Kastorian family, the state saved about 1.19m euros. “The project is completed, the beautors are fantastic, they do not break anything and they do a valuable job,” he said.
