"There's easy fixes to living alongside beavers, we are just afraid of the unknown, we are afraid of change. We haven't lived alongside beavers for 400 years," he said. "We have kept it a little bit quiet to settle in and everything. We believe there's two, there could me more but we have seen two together.
Nadya Mirochnitchenko, the ecologist for Ealing Beaver Project, said they wanted to educate people about beavers and "about how we can live with beavers in harmony"."This is an urban site, where people have access to it and the beavers can also thrive as well."The site is right next to a retail park and a fast food drive-through. It is surrounded on all sides by roads and buildings. But in this small, green oasis the beavers have made their home.
