The Cairngorms National Park Authority (CNPA) has vowed to help restore a “lost” species by taking a lead role in bringing protected beavers to the area.
The decision was made by members at a board meeting on June 10, where CNPA’s role will further help the Scottish Government’s policy to expand the Eurasian beaver population in Scotland.
The board wishes to take on a proactive approach, including managing the application, delivery, mitigation support and monitoring, while working alongside partners.
