Beavers have an essential role in sustaining open waters. Research by the Canadian University of Alberta has revealed the alarming effects of drought due to the removal of beavers and their dams as part of urbanized development.

Beavers’ dam building activities are known to protect wildlife habitat and replenish groundwater supplies. Our appreciations researchers, for raising our awareness of the vital roles our animal co-inhabitants play in the survival of our world. With evidence such as this and the blessings of Heaven, may we strive harder to preserve our natural habitats and uphold the sanctity of all life.
