Meet the inner city beavers

In this episode, Fabian Holzinger and Franziska Thurner describe the habitat of the inner city beavers in Linz. How big is their territory, what threatens it and who are the family members? They found the beavers’ lodge first inside a construction zone, seemingly the beavers got used to the noise of construction and people passing by daily. Fabian and Franziska started recording the noises of the beaver family. They did this very carefully, so as not to disturb the animals and their living space unnecessarily.

Their big lodge got destroyed in high water and now they live in different burrows, that makes it harder to listen to them, but they are still around!
