Louise Ramsay, from the Scottish Wild Beaver Group, explains how Beavers can prevent flooding by keeping more water in uplands, away from people. "Beavers build dams and they complicate and slow down water," . "They braid the streams [creating a network of small channels] and they will block ditches."
