Jamie Utz and Chris Yarbrough are part of Idaho Fish and Game and came on to talk about the work they do with beavers. Problem beavers present unique opportunities to both resolve an issue with a native species that is causing problems for residents and to increase surface water storage. Beavers are known world wide as animals that help structure environments, and IDFG is working with Idahoans across the state to manage and place these iconic animals. Enjoy!
