Tamar Beaver Officer
The Tamar Beaver Management Group was established by a partnership of organisations to oversee wild beavers living within the whole Tamar River catchment: the main River Tamar, the Inny, Thrushel, Wolf, Lyd, Carey, Deer, Claw, Ottery, Tavy, Walkham, Lynher and smaller tributaries.
The group was formed so that stakeholder groups with an interest in the wild beaver population can be represented in the decisions made about how the beavers are monitored and responses given to beaver activity.
The full Beaver Management Group is convened for an Annual Forum of local interested people and organisations to represent the interests of the people that live, work in and visit the Tamar Valley. If you need any further information or support in the meantime then please don’t hesitate to get in contact.
This website has been designed to support communities and land managers living alongside beavers in Britain. It is also a useful source of relevant information on Beaver Advisory/Management Groups in river catchments where wild beavers are becoming established. It has been designed by Devon Wildlife Trust and Beaver Trust.
