Shropshire Wildlife Trust has released the long-awaited beavers into the site prepared for them in the Old River Bed. The pair are reported to be settling in well, and the boardwalks at the site are now open for quiet visits. For more information on the benefits the beavers can provide for the ecosystem and for water management, visit the SWT website.
