Cornwall

The Cornwall Catchment Beaver Management Group (CCBMG) was established by a partnership of organisations to oversee and prepare for wild beavers living within catchments across Cornwall. The group is a sub-set of the Cornwall Catchment Partnership.

There are licenced and unlicenced wild-living beaver populations in Devon, as well as on the Cornish side of the River Tamar. The CCBMG was formed so that stakeholder groups with an interest in beaver populations could be represented in the decisions made about how beavers are monitored and responses given to beaver activity across the region.

The CCBMG meets quarterly to discuss updates. An Annual Stakeholder Forum for local interested people and organisations to represent the interests of the people that live, work in, and visit Cornwall, will take place in 2025.

If you need any information, or support, regarding beaver management please get in contact.

The CCBMG covers the whole of Cornwall, excluding the River Tamar catchment. For beaver management support in the Tamar region please contact: Beavers@devonwildlifetrust.org
