VIVA THE BEAVERS!

Rodents saving the planet

- NADEEM BADSHAH

FRIENDLY beavers are saving Britain from ecological disaster, experts reckon. 

The return of the semi-aquatic rodents is helping to repair nature, according to the RSPB.

Beavers returned to Loch Lomond, Scotland, this year while water voles made a shock comeback in Cumbria.

They boost wetland habitats which support more types of wildlife and help in the fight against climate change and species loss.
