Four European beavers have been released in an enclosure at WWT Martin Mere.
It is believed the Eurasian Beaver became extinct in Britain in the 1500s and by the end of the 1800s only a few hundred beavers remained in Europe. The beaver display at Martin Mere will not only be the only attraction in the North West where visitors can watch beavers in their natural habitat, but the first time they have been resident in Lancashire for 500 years.
