At least two new kits have appeared just 8 months after pioneering reintroduction of beaver family at Paradise Fields in Ealing, West London.
Within this time, the family of Eurasian beavers had settled in, built lodges, dams and new waterways.
The births mark the end of a more than 400 year absence of breeding beavers in urban London, once permanent residents in the capital, before hunting, habitat loss and persecution led to the loss of the 3. species throughout the UK.
The family have already improved the water quality, biodiversity, and hydrology at the site, and by having kits they continue to prove that beavers can truly thrive alongside people in urban environments.
