The Impact of Beavers on #Biodiversity
#Beavers essentially create #ecosystems within ecosystems, promoting a rich tapestry of life. Their impact on biodiversity is profound, with studies showing that areas inhabited by beavers often have higher species diversity than those without.

A creek gulch area i passed over a few days ago. This creek looks small, but it sure gets big when the rains come. I bet it gets real loud and tumultuous. I wonder how long it's taken to carve this gulch...

The area around there is mostly pasture land and grassy fields, but in the gulch, it's full jungle. The way these river gulches hold moisture and shade provides a most fantastic habitat for just about all kinds of plants (including invasive). It's basically moist and shady all the time (great mosquito and pig habitat too lol). The rivers that make these gulches often have freshwater crawfish in them too.

Anyway, I was just crossing the little bridge over the gulch and stopped to take the photo. I don't think there's an easy way to get down to the creek. But it sure is lovely to look down into it and see the jungle!
