  • Beaver Balls and Beaver Bombing
    Jun 13 2023
    Want to know why beavers went extinct in Britain, and how quickly they might be returning to your local river? Or why dastardly Defra conspired to cull them? Or why beavers in Idaho needed parachutes—a literal beaver-bombing? Or what a fine white wine has in common with the gloop from a beaver’s back end? Of course you do: so this is the episode for you. Come and join us as we wander down the River Otter—no cheating, no faking—and see if we can find a beaver of our own.
