Fifteen families of beavers have been given the permanent "right to remain" on the River Otter in East Devon. The decision was made by the government following a five-year study by the Devon Wildlife Trust into beavers' impact on the local environment. The Trust called it "the most ground-breaking government decision for England's wildlife for a generation". It's the first time an extinct native mammal has been given government backing to be reintroduced in England. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.co.uk/news/amp/science-environment-53658375
