Beaver Management
David has been involved in training and working on the introduction and management of beavers in the wild environment. This has included evidence surveys in several river catchments and the development of beaver management plans and prediction mapping.
In 2024 he completed the Natural England Class Licence training so is now legally allowed to carry out damn and location tasks as set out by the CL51 licencing protocols.
Deliverables:
- Site surveys - at both individual locations and water catchment level
- Site visits and consultations with landowners and wildlife organisations
- Advice on potential landscape changes and beaver damn location predictions
- Beaver damn management under a Natural England CL51 Class Licence
- Educational talks
- Change monitoring - fixed point photography and site surveys
